Ive started the update of my 21 Paramount. The boat was structurally very sound with the exception of oe soft hatch that needed recoring. There were 25 years of holes, brackets, fittings etc that all needed attention so a major makeover was in order.

The boat was completely stripped and is currently being blocked to get all the waves out of it. A new small console will replace the large heavy console and reduce weight by about 100 pounds. The exterior will be Jeep Hydro Metallic Blue with Linex non-skid around the cap and engine well. Power will be a Merc 250 EFI on a 6" Atlas jackplate with 8" Bobs Machine setback brackets.

I was lucky enough to find an original pic of my boat when it was for sale new at Sundance Marine circa 1989. We know this is mine because its the only 21 with a liner and scuppers coming out the rear.

LOTS of blocking going on. She is really wavy. With that pearl color she really needs to be straight as it will show every flaw.

We should be putting color on her today/tomorrow and Ill update with pics.
Should make a really nice fishable sandbar boat that will be fast enough to do some of the S&F runs when its too rough for the little tunnel boat.
