The basic difference between the V22 and V222 is the cabin. The V222's cabin extends a little further forward to accomodate the head (porta potti), and the cabin roof also has a pop-top. Also, now that I think of it, the forward hatch on the V222 is in front of the mast, whereas the hatch on the V22 is to the side of it.

Sailor...is there a Hull I'd number on this boat. Either rear transom right or on stringers down below?

Take the HIN to the DMV and have the title looked up.

From what I can see you have a V-222. It looks like there's a pop top under that cover. Fair Winds and full Sails...
