I might be a Trojan owner

Post by Rnd »

After a year and a half of looking I pulled the trigger. We don't know if they will accept the offer, but I put in an offer,deposit and contract on a 1985 13 meter express. Now I'm worried they might say O.K. :shock: Get out the check book.

Say goodbye to your other hobbies. You won't want to bother with them and won't have time anyway!

RND, Hopefully your salel is contingent on sea trial and survey. 13M have cored hullsso you want a really good hull survey. Great boats as long as no one has done anythng stupid with it.

Congrats

Thanks for the input guys.
Prowler.. It has 6-71ti's with recent major O/H on both. I boat out of Erie pa.

Gardner.. I will have a survey done on both the hull and engines. The one thing I liked most about the older Trojans was the Lak of wood. Heard many stories of "wood no wood" this year and model did/did not have wood. I guess I will know for sure after survey.

Still have not heard back from broker. I will let you folks know how this plays out.

Thanks, Randy
