Hello. my name is Ron, i just baught a 1984 trojan 10 meter. I have come across this site a couple of time s while researching. read a few posts and was helped by some posts so i figured it would be a good place to join. hope to help anyone i can and have already been helped by some of your posts! This is the second boat that i have owned the firts being a 22 ft walk around cuddy so this boat is a big step up for me...will try to post pics when i figure out how.

Welcome to the Forum!!

the 10 meters are nice boats do you have a express or fly brige ? or a rare aft-cabin ?

Hi Ron,
We live in Newington and go right by Portland (through Middletown) on our way to Clinton. Maybe a welcome to the Forum drink is in order?

Welcome to the forum Ron... This is a great place to share information. I purchased a 10.8 International last year with 350 original hours. My family and I love the boat . We do our boating on the Allegheny River in Pittsburgh.

Thanks all for the welcome. My trojan is at the portland riverside marine, it is just south and across the river from Harbor Park(Americas cup) restraunt. It is still in the water as i hope to tinker and run it a few more weeks. If i am not at work and the weather permits, i will be at the marina working on the boat.
