And as you can tell by my screen name, I am a former car guy, Small blocks were my specialty, but I am convinced on outboards for boats.

22' Apache outboard
 
I agree. In this size range I like outboards.

My friend used to own this boat. It was an original Bob Saccenti built 22' Apache. Boat was built like a tank! Handled rough water very well for a 22'.

That Apache is a way cool ride . A very unique boat with a lot of history and sharp lines ! I personally like the lines of the older boats in this class better than the a lot of the newer ones.
Looking at the attention your thread is getting,there is a lot of o interest in the smaller boats which is nice to see!!
I have personally revied a few older boats in this class
such as a 1969 Donzi Corsican,and a 1979 Sutphen Super Pacer and most recently a 1971 Wellcraft center console.

WOW, what a COOL boat! I love it! Outboards are great! You can take them out anytime of the year and not have to worry about freezing the block at night!
