Default Re: American International / North American 22 and 26

they have a very, very flat back end, they powered a lot with small I/O's (penta outdrive) and the flat deadrise did OK on flat water and the bays. Good when drifting, but this is a totally different animal when compared to a 23 SC. The hulls were very similar to the early 70's and 80's robalos. (variable deadrise, flat end). Hull/deck joint screwed together, the "windshield" model had very little support in the way of bulkheads and the deck tended to "float" when going through waves.
