Found this boat rather interesting. Most likely a one-of-a-kind. Roy Farmer's old boat.

Looks like they took a Hornet II or III hull and made a modified St Tropez deck for it .
Very interesting that he would have chosen to do that . I wonder if it might just have been an I/O originally ?
Just because something's old doesn't mean you throw it away !
bored...
maybe it's a 19 St Tropez and they call it 21' because of the engine bracket being 2' ??

From what I read, Roy loved to fish in the keys.

Got lots of data on the boat. Was Roy Farmer's. Owner has the docs from when Roy sold it to the current owner's brother. Roy was their next door neighbor on Lower Matacumbe Key.
It is 21 foot hull. HIN DMR21001C585. The current owner, thought it was a Hornet hull. It was built as an outboard. Original name was "Happy Bottom" after Roy's wife Gladys.
New tank, gel, console, etc in 2000. Loads of other stuff in 2012. Well taken care of.
That is all for now.

Great story on a one off boat the hornet II and III kept consecutive numbering so the 21 hornet III picked up where the 20 hornet II left off at hull 72
very neat 21 hull number 1 great looking boat

I have far too many boats, just ask my Wife.
If you have something of great quality, and you take care of it, it will last forever.
