Trojan Boat Forum

well, as it so happens, i went to a boat 'junk yard' in freehold new jersey on monday and there is a 1973 trojan 31 that is being parted out if you guys need anything, let me know. just ask and i will forward your questions to the guy that oversees the yard. i'm the uplink so to speak we would be wi...

OKAY, YES, I AM GOING TO SHOUT..... WHOLLY GEEZE BATMAN, TALK ABOUT A 'TURN-KEY' VESSEL!!!!! like the good book says though, ''though shalt not covet thy neighbors trojan''. however, i'm willing to let that one go..... MAZEL TOV on the vessel, and welcome aboard (as if i don't say that enough in th...

wow.... it looks fantastic...... i cant wait to attempt something like this on my f-32.

i am going dumpster diving at the used boat yard listed from the post above monday morning. it is located in new jersey.... any requests? remember, i'm driving a subaru forester and on a limited budget.....
i can't wait to see this place.

i would like to see a pic or two as well. any idea how someone on the ''east'' coast can get help for a broken salon window? as in previous posts, i am still trying to fix one of my salon windows but am really running into a brick wall when it comes to the ''h'' channels to properly mount it.

here is the link to the marina that did the repower on the '77 f-32. i have actually seen this vessel up close and it looks fantastic. i am actually thinking of having them do some of the seacock work, and bottom painting for me in the spring, but, beware, this place really charges a premium for all...

i just looked at your pic of the ''sockets'' on your transom.... i have a total of 4 that look the same on my '76 f-32... 2 port/2 starboard.... they are indeed fuel tank vents.

thanks peter.... appreciate the kind words. i'm heading to bed now, the crew has a report time of 0450 in the hotel lobby and we have a 14hr 6 leg day ahead of us...... thank god i'm working in the back galley of the 737-400...... i can atleast hide durning passenger boarding while i try to get awak...

finally, i have a pic of the trojan burgee/pennant flying on my f-32. at least there was enough wind that day to show the whole thing. http://i359.photobucket.com/albums/oo40/EVENT_HORIZON_F32/trojanburgeeoneventhorizon.jpg let me know if this cut and past thing works. aaron (currently on a layover ...

are we talking ''thru hull fittings'' or ''seacocks''? there is a difference. a ''thru hull fitting'' is normally above the water line and used to discharge either water from the decks, as in scuppers, a/c raw water pump discharge, galley/sink drains, manual/auto bilge pump discharge, engine raw wat...

ditto to all..... as a flight crew member, i have not had a thanksgiving at home in almost 20 years, but, i am glad to have met such great people here on this site. i consider you all my extended family. as i type this from a hotel room in minneapolis i think of how great it will be to finally get h...

the odd thing about the salon window cover boards was they are in perfect condition.... they just were covered in fabric.... needless to say, i like the look and feel of the natural wood. if only i could get the wood over the dinette to look as good, but, the huge staples the previous owners used ma...

ready strip works wonders too....... i only wish the previous owners of my f-32 left well enought alone. in the salon, they covered the wood over the windows with fabric and had foam padding put under it to give it a ''tufted'' look.... when i removed the fabric, some of the foam left a nasty sticky...
