Re: Potable water leak

Do not know to much about the Tri-Cabin, however, my experience with the Trojans leads me to believe that you can access virtully all system parts with out sawing things apart. I struggled with my vaccuflush trying ot get it out to rebuild it, almost resorted to cutting things apart, then I found th...

Re: Ship's clock

What kind of Trojan. I have a 10 meter international that had a Micronta Clock in the dash. Do not know if it was factory. It did not work but I was able to find one on ebay.

Re: New trojan 400 owner. Lots of questions

+++ on Prowlersfish, There are multiple options for Shore power. 30 amp 125volt, 50 amp 125 volt, and 50 amp 250 volt. It is important to know which one you have before you go changing things. Bad things can happen if done incorrectly. If you have multiple AC units the 50 amp you removed was probabl...

Re: New trojan 400 owner. Lots of questions

Federal law requires boats less that 20 feet to have capacity tags. The NMMA requires manufacturers to have capacity tags on boats less than 26 feet. There is a formula to calculate capcity and is as follows, it assumes a passenger weight of 150 lbs. Boat Length x Boat Beam at the transom divided by...

Re: New trojan 400 owner. Lots of questions

Do not know about the batteries or engines, but as to capacity, larger boats do not list capacity, it is up to you to decide what is safe. There have been discussions about this before and the number of passengers that others think is safe varies widly. I have a 10 meter international and have had 1...

Re: New trojan 400 owner. Lots of questions

Well first off, I would remove the shore power and get the stuck cord out of the socket. You should be able to remove the shore power socket and then try to remove the cord or purchase a new shore power socket. Once this is completed you can check for shorts in the system and if not shorts present t...

Re: 1987 10M Sedan bilge pump question

I have a 10 meter International, on mine you have to remove the fold down door on the Starboard side, the bilge pump is behind the fuel tank, you have to stick your head in there to see it. The float switch is nearby and the high water alarm float switch is almost at the hull on the Starboard side, ...

Re: Engine Winterization

Of course draining the engine only applies to raw water cooled engines. For those a of us that have fresh water cooled engines, I pull the raw water hose off the seacock and run 3-4 gals of antifreeze through the raw water cooling side. Have never had a problem.

Sounds likes a typical day boating on the Mississippi River. Looking at the other posts looks like I should find cleaner water to boat in.

Re: '83 Trojan 10m transmission

+1 to Prowlersfish, sounds like the forward plates are dragging a bit. Mine drag a little, idling in the slip the boat will move forward. There is a spec for clearance in the forward clutch pack, depending on how much drag you have, you may be a bit out of spec. If it is the clutch pack it will even...
