While not a Trojan, this beautiful boat was at our guest dock yesterday, I cant remember the make (dorsey?)

the level of detail in the resotration is unbelievable check out the bow piece and those old Johnsons!

I saw this boat on ebay awhile back and was so impressed I had to compliment the guy on the boat even though I wasn't going to buy it. I love the color especially and the restoration is the best.
