Sport refers to seating,2 buckets and full bench. XL is L-shaped seating. Make sure hull # starts with RRH. Around 83 Bob sold the molds to Renken,but only a few were built before Strkyer got the molds.Strkyer is closed,still has the molds in Huntsville Al. Also there were a few bow riders made, called 2150BR.

Thanks a lot, fellows. Now I am getting excited! A member on Scream and Fly said that he owned one, once, and that it was the roughest riding boat he had ever owned. I am wondering if he just didn't have it set up right. I am pretty good at that sort of stuff, so I'm not too worried. I may soon be joining the ranks of you off shore guys. Well, not too far off shore .

This boat should work a lot better in rough water than my 19' Daytona. Just be a much slower ride .

The guy on the other site is mistaken,the 2150 doesn't have reverse chines and is arguably one of the best riding 21 vees ever produced. As for the seat pedestals breaking out of the floor,that's a dead givaway that he had one of the Renken built boats. We were Hammond's largest dealer for for 3 of the 7-8 years they were prodced by Bob ,don't remember ever filing a warranty claim.Wish he was still building today.

Magicfloat,

Man now you've got me PUMPED! That comment was the only negative I have heard about this boat, and if you were a dealer, I figure you know more about it than he does. My wife will flip when she sees this, as she is more excited about a bigger boat than I am. She has been on me to buy a small cuddy for a while, but I told her I wouldn't be caught dead in the ones that we can afford (Bayliner, etc. ) - image and all.

I am going to see the boat Tuesday, and from what I have found out so far, I will be dragging it home. Maybe I can start hanging with Wigginout, from up here.

Will these numbers get me any more info? Model is Hamm 02100. Serial # is RRH03209M83J. Thanks, again.

That would be one of the last "real" Hammonds built in Austin,Tx. RRH is the Coast Guard code for Robert R. Hammond.

I haven't owned a boat in thirty years but I just bought a Hammond bowrider I/O Mercruiser,19'4', hull #RRH2999M83A. I just took it out on a small lake here in North Texas and it rides great. Do you know where I might get wiring or tech manual for this old boat?

Here's my 1984 Challenger MKII. Original owner and it's in excellent condition. It's on SBC #5. Drive # 2. I completely redid the upholstery and dash last winter. Added carbon fiber dash panel along with Gaffrig gauges. With a 400hp 355ci it runs 70-73gps all day long. Building a 475hp 385ci for next season and looking for 80mph. That's about all the Alpha will handle.

Hi MAJICFLOAT In 2000 I purchased a 2150 from my father inlaw in Jasper. As I understand its history it was on Smith lake till I got it. It is an 86. A 300 tempest and alpha 1. It now sits along side my 330 Carver on the Il. river in Illinois. The red flake and crean colour still draw some looks, I have hit 65 with 2 aboard. After all these years she is still tight and surprises the locals with her speed and handeling. Dollar for dollar the best sport boat on this river. Never did brake the seats. I would like your opinion on how much power the Stryker built hull can handle. Its time for an over haul and I always want more power. If you still in Jasper, next election vote for Sonny, my wifes uncle,lol.
