I just tell marinas that it is a Trojan F-36 and let them decide. So far, I have never been charged for more than 36 feet, but have gotten comments that it is a bit bigger than expected.

Our boat tapes out at 39' 8" with bow pulpit and swim platform.

As you can make out if you look closely at the last two pictures. The windows are tinted very dark. Then there is a black band about 4 inches high which appears to be your typical adhesive vinyl. Then a space above that wide band about maybe 1/2" and then another strip above that which is about 1/4" wide also in black vinyl. These 2 vinyl bands go along the bottom of all the windows, lincluding the front ones as well. As I look close at the decal, I'm realizing that the grey shading is actually the only part that makes up the lettering and it's laid on top of the black.

Ok , Per Bob , and John Leeds ( A Trojan engineer ) A some research of my own they did not com on that boat or any Trojan built boat . They are likely a carver built Trojan decal that someone put on . Carver bought the name in 1992 . The numbers and photos all say you have a 11 meter sedan .

After about 30 minutes of scratching my head trying to figure out how I would let you see a picture I took of that decal, I've given up. I don't think there are enough years left in my life to jump through all the hoops for that on here. Anywhere else on the internet it's such a simple process of clicking on that paper clip icon and in seconds the process is complete. The letter font style is a square black letter with rounded corners and the grey shading is to the right. All upper case letters and the J doesn't have a horizontal line across the top. Similar to the font style used here. It definitely looks like it was done at the factory.

Try posting photos now I think it will work better for you now
