� � � � New on the market is this Whiticar 21 Cuddy, which is both gorgeous and one of a kind. Itâ��s the only outboard boat ever built by Whiticar Boat Works, the noted Stuart, Fla., builder of quality cold-molded offshore sportfishermen.
� � � � This little gem was built in 1966 for T.R. Garlington of custom boatbuilder Garlington Yachts, who used to run her a mile or two out into the Gulf Stream on fair days to fish for sailfish. She was completely restored in 2009 by Paul Scopinich, who owns Scopinich Boat Works in Stuart, which is known for its quality fighting chairs and custom boats.
Ã? Ã? Ã? ââ?¬Å?I pulled it out of the garage in June, and we all went at it,ââ?¬ï¿½ Scopinich says. The cold-molded mahogany-planked hull was in surprisingly good shape. There were a few soft spots on the deck, on one of the frames and around the aluminum windshield, but otherwise the structure was sound.
Scopinich was impressed by how well the little Whiticar had weathered its 43 years. ââ?¬Å?The hull was perfect,ââ?¬ï¿½ he says. ââ?¬Å?They go overboard when they build stuff. They donââ?¬â?¢t forget the epoxy.ââ?¬ï¿½
Ã? Ã? ScopinichÃ? and his team completely rewired the boat, put a teak deck over the original cold-molded plywood one, added a teak helm pod and two new helm chairs, and rechromed all the original hardware.Ã? He replaced the aluminum windshield with a lovely wooden one that Whiticar founder Curt Whiticar sketched for him on the back of a nautical chart.Ã? Scopinich hung a new 90-hp Suzuki 4-stroke on the transom and replaced the Suzuki stickers with new specially made Mercury ones from the Black Max period.Ã?Â
� � � The information above was provided by an article written for Soundings Magazine in 2010. The boat today looks fantastic and has seen little use and is ready to be used for day cruising and near shore fishing or just showing off on the water.
