Thanks for the info, I was hoping/thinking that was going to be said. On another topic, this 1985 doesn't have the walk through transom. What year did that start?

Express ? Sedan ?

Unless someone had cut into the coring no. IMO everything else not so much .

Do you have the source info on those distributors? I have 76’ with 360’s and am experiencing engine stall .wondering if new distributor/ignition will straighten it out?? Thanks, Bill Here you go . We sell a Marine 318/360 distributor which is listed in the Trojan Boat Store under Chrysler parts.[/b]

You can try cleaning with spray carb cleaner , but it won't make it shine and likely won't help much . Your issue could be simple adjustments . If it is not adjustments then a disassemble and clean maybe in order (overhaul) . But it still won't shine lol .

That's a good start .

Sounds strange , do you have the wiring diagram ? If it has a relay using a ground is common in the automotive field . 2 wire switch ?

Going to look nice .

When you have no oil pressure the oil presser switch is closed . This completes the ground on the alarm and alarm will sound .

There is a oil pressure switch that turns on the alarm and a temperature switch that does the same both by grounding . one could be shorted or the wire grounded .


Its best to say what boat and what engine when asking these questions

Do you have any experience on the water and operating a boat around this size and with twins ? If so great . If not fine somone who does and get them to go out with you . It maybe a friend or ...

Looking at buying a 1980 Trojan f32, Since the engines are under the salon floor, how much noise is created? Have not gone on a sea trial yet. What extra's have anyone added to their boat, new electronics (Radar/ GPS), stereo's, autopilot, Gallons per Hour gauges? Noise is very subjective and can v...

Beautiful

The info I gave is what is listed for the single engine F30 . Thank you. Did some research . Not much difference in the draft of the twins vs. the single . Why ? First there is very little dead rise at the back , not flat but close . Prop size is the same 14" as it is also 1 to 1 gear . A single bi...

Wow, very cool! I'm a big fan of the Trojan International line and only recently learned about this one-off boat. Do you recall how much it sold for? Also, are you aware of any brochures still in existence for the late 80s models, especially when the 12 meter express came out? Beacon marine may hav...
