those 2 pic's appeared here before, several years back, I think the Reg sticker was '93... the real nice blue MO 21GT boat had the same transom inset and Volvo drives...

somewhere back in the late '60's, I think it was Glastron, that had a twin 20' footerish as well

this one has replacement Merc 233 Ford 351Ws in it from the original 290 HM 351W the 290s are also replacement equipment.here are pics of the nice blue one and the yellow 6 cyl twin and also the 233s in the first boat pictured they also shoehorned two Ford 427s and v drives into one GT that would be on my bucket list

I remember Thunderbird , along with Glastron,& a few others, building small 21 foot and under twins in the early 1970s.
There were a handfull in my South Jersey area.
Most were powered with inline straight sixes & Volvo outdrives.
The New Jersey Marine Police unit had there of the Thunnderbird twins which were like the boats used in the "Flipper" TV series.
They were inline six/Volvo outdrive powered.
There were also Volvo 4 cylinder engine powered versions out there .

I have never seen a twin outdrive GT-21 Donzi before in person.
And surely not one with twin V-8 power stuffed in like Matty's photo post above.
