Americat 22
2 / 5 - score 45%
The Americat 22 is a 22.01ft gaff head cat designed by Francis Sweisguth and built in fiberglass by George E. Benedict since 1969.
The Americat 22 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a very high performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a racing boat.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
