It is over 100 lbs lighter than the F225 of that era and tested at the prop to 215 hp. I will also say the 200 hdpi was one if not the best hdpi of the series and absolutely apples and oranges compared to the f225.

A Paramount is a completely different hull design. I actually had a 21 Concept with a 200 Ocean Runner and the boat ran well but was not a speed demon. 200 HPDI is a great motor.
