Chrysler Top Hat Thermostat

We often get asked about how the top hat thermostat works and is installed. Here are a few pictures. Note: Inside the thermostat housing is a seal -- that seal must be in good condition.

Without the collar, it would ride up and wear the cam gear as it would not be fully engaged. Engine direction is always from the flywheel. Setting on the drive looking forward. An auto...

Re: Considering a 1986 F27 but...12MPH top speed?

For clarification Trojan Yachts was never a division of Bertram. Both company’s always remained completely separate. The only connection between the two company’s was the capital venture company that brought both boat company’s in mid 1985. (Invest Corp, an Arabian Investment firm, purchased both co...

Remember to change your impeller(s)

Don’t let this happen to you. Now is the time to change your impeller(s) before the season starts. On an open or closed cooling system -- if you blow a impeller you need to find every piece before installing a new impeller. The general rule: Most manufacturers recommend every two years. It's probabl...

Re: AC replacement-10 meter sedan

There is not enough room in the overhead in the salon of a 10 meter sadan to but a self contained marine AC unit up there. If the compressor is bad just change it out. A new compressor will come with a new thermostat controls. You would not need to put new copper lines in. Changing out the compresso...

Flush Door Locks

Many of the Trojan F boats from 1970 to the early 1980s had flush door locks on the cabinet doors and anchor locker. The original Trojan flush door lock is no longer available. We thought about having more made but recently found an excellent replacement which is more attractive and less prone to br...
