Apache22

[kbirdmon]

Mine was originally rigged with a 30" stainless marine set back and a 300 V8 Evinrude XP motor. From Factory that way. Very similar to rapid transit set up.
All I did was sell v8 and Hang a 250 Etec on it and it ran awesome. Set back was a bit much to try and turn at 60 in a 3' plus sea. But it worked great in rough going straight... Boat thought it was 41' long. Never had to lift off throttle really ever.

I quess you had same kind of set back as i do, mine is like swimtab �� but i like it. Old Johnson 225hp gives nice ride with 4bladed turbo txt and can be varied in different conditions with hydraulic jack plate. 64mph was top speed.

Is the Apache 22 a stretched version of the Challenger 21? with a new deck I figure?

...drop a plum bob on a string off both ends of a mid eighties apache 22 scout & measure its true length. its 21 feet 2 inches. yes, it was called a 22 in those years to compete with the then popular velocity 22, marketing wise. the four different generations of molds of this apache varied in its length, give or take, a few inches. one has to be very specific on which exact year small apache they are referencing in conversation. there were about six different deck molds & designs build by apache over the years, for this same hull. a couple of these were called a 21, others, a 22. the hull/deck overall lengths varied minutely...
