The 1995 Four Winns 220 Horizon is decent boat. 22 feet is a good size for boating on Winni. Good handling when the water is rough.

If it powered by a Volvo Penta then great. Very reliable power package. Drive unit is strong, engine (which ever v6 or v8) is very good. Yours will most likely have a v8.

If powered by OMC (Outboard Marine Corporation), then I would be a little weary of buying it. It is always possible to hit something when boating and with the OMC they are hard to fix if the parts are not available or difficult to find. If you do find the parts then get ready to pay the price for it.

This is just my opinion on them and what I have run into in the past. Good luck with your future boat purchase. Kyle
