Trojan Boat Forum

Thats nothing i should post a pic of what my batteries look like. Lol. Just waiting to see what happens with the genset i might be getting this weekend and that will determine how i lay out my batteries

That's my plan also for the deck... lol. It's nice having someone doing the same thing and sharing our ideas as we go. This forum has been a great help. And I'm sure our work will help the next guy... Make sure you lay the CSM in opposite directions. 1 layer port to starboard and next bow to stern....

Nice work on the battery box. Is that with 2 batteries side by side? Or 4 in a row?. Once im done with the rear deck i will move into the engine room after boat is launched.

Im using 1/2 in marine ply. With 2 layers of chop strand matting. Then 2 layers of gel coat. With no skid.

Some new pictures.

Template made for the floor. Cut the wood and i am going to be installing the deck today.

Cleaned up the wiring today. Ill take some pics once i have everything mounted where it needs to be b4 i make the template for the floor itself.

Just picked up my props they look almost brand new.

Both new tanks are installed and all hoses ran. Reimstalled pressure pump for fresh water and installed the saltwater wash down pump. Tomorrow ill take up the electric for everything and stsrt the template for the floor.

Im going to pissed. All of my fishing numbers are on an older faruno 1650 and 1850. Need to figure out how to transfer to the new simrad system.

Looks great. Im a little bit behind you. I have both tanks secured and plumbed. Next will be rewiring all the old wiring. Then laying the floor. How did you decide to make the hatch trim. I have a few ideas for mine since im enlarging my hatch.

Ordered my nmea 2000 network today, along with the Nolan rs11, 2 lowrance fuel flow sensors. My birthday came a few days early

Now i need to figure out where to mount the total scan transducer.

Here are some pics of the new system.!!!!
