did the guy you bought the mold from have a yellow 19 action??

**airbow** · 10-07-2013, 10:40 AM

No he only had this mold and a white hull which he built from this mold , Marvin at Tribal boats in port Charlotte is who I bought it from , he bought it off of Dan worth in jupiter farms at liberty boats , Dan bought it from Barney , I talked with Barney's Son and it all lines up . As far as I know Marvin also at one point had either the 23or the 25 cc , what is the story on the guy with the yellow action 19 ? Also some of you guys asked me about some hulls from this mold and I shot you over my thoughts , keep in mind we are talking polyester , my uncles buddy had a yellow action 21cc popped from this mold and paid over 10 k for the naked hull in 1980 , that was 33 years ago ! The dollar bill today only has sixty cents of buying power that is why everything is so expensive to buy , so lets say someone was to buy a product at 20 k , in reality they have used up sixteen k in buying power although it took 20 k in bills to do it , inflation , if I could have picked up one of these hulls at 22 or 23 which is their true value I would have done it just to be able to say I own it . This hull is way badder than some of the newly built junk out their today that is selling in the same price bracket .

The way I see it just off the top of my head the 21cc brand new complete with engine on a show room floor would sit at 40 at least , so if I'm able to get one under thirty up to thirty two complete turnkey trailer and all what al steal with bragging rights to own absolutely one of the baddest boat in its class ever built hands down ! How bad do you want it is what I had to ask myself and quickly realized their was no way I was missing out on something so real and so alive , this is truly living . Any of you guys remember the old hutch pro racer, GT, or profile , just thinking of it is like drinking from the fountain of youth I would do whatever I could to have one its a time machine to the younger years and refreshes good memories of all the fun in life , I was able to obtain the GT my buddy had when we were 12 years old , I'm now 40 we rode those bikes all over south miami their was a whole slew of us , I had a Hutch , my other bud had a pro racer, profile , diamond back and the list goes on , it was the 80s man good memories indeed , that GT is part of those memories and that action is also a huge part of those memories and I think this is a big part of why people like these boats so much , for all the same reasons I do its the old school , I can't wait to get started building !

So tell me airbow,what is the main difference between the action21 and paramount 21 hulls? Just that hook ? Where are the paramount molds ?

**native2** · 10-14-2013, 08:41 PM

Good luck with the project. Should make a nice flats hull.

**airbow** · 10-14-2013, 09:04 PM

The paramount originated from this mold I have , as far as other copy's by paramount I'm not sure but I will ask Barney what he knows , on this hook you are referring to , the bottom of the hull is straight its the way that v starts to drop heading toward the bow that makes it look hooked , that ver starts dropping pretty far back on that hull and their you have the hook effect , that thing is wicked hate to say it like that buts its bad berry bad ass that is , the only difference I'm aware of as of now is the shoebox on the bottom of the transom on the action its huge on the paramount their is not much of one , that's what makes the action an action in a sense , and I think the action is lighter , I will find out more on the two boats but I have noticed that without seeing the shoebox on either hull I can tell the two apart, I don't know maybe its just me . I will get some better pics if I can shes upside down right now .

Thanks , yea when I sold my action to Ed down in duck key he showed me his flats boat it had the same exact shoebox as the action , turns out it was the same hull with the sides cut down and a flats cap on top , its called Bay Boats , the action hull is very wide it will run shallower than most flats boats , she rides like a Cadillac of the sea and at the same time screams !! My 20 year old son does Bass tournaments I'm thinking that thing would make an awesome Bass boat as well , right now he's got a 1978 16" skeeter with a 1986 v6 150hp Suzuki super six on it , the previous owner guestamated it would run 82 mph stock no jack plate , I can't wait to try .
