Paragon 25 Cabin

It is somewhat unusual to review a boat of such relatively modest dimensions with inboard diesel power rather than outboards, but the Swedish-built Paragon 25 Cabin has a 320hp Volvo Penta turbodiesel neatly tucked away under the cockpit sole.

The best boat👍👍👍

I own a custom-built, twin outboard 31' Team Scarab by Larry Smith. It's an impressive offshore weekend cruiser, but I'd rather take one of these Paragon 25' or 31' anytime. Build quality is insanely remarkable. In Finland, they really know how to build amazing boats.

good job - thx

Gawd this boat looks cramped.

[@LarsLindroth]

Scandinavians are hardly small in stature and this boat got a beam of 2 m 90 cm. A lot more room onboard than a video camera's lens is able to communicate. For being a 25-footer she's very impressive indeed. The 26.5 deadrise at transom and variably deeper towards the bow naturally creates a very deep roomy interior.

Table design…. The column in the boat…. Horrible idea. Looks bad and isn’t functional.

The table is very functional once you swivel the helm and navigator seats.
