10 meter Aft Cabin
Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2011 6:20 am
bunk arrangements on the 10 Meter International Express Cruiser:
fwd abin = 2
dinette converts to bunk = 2
2 port single bunks = 2
six total bunks
add in the aft cabin
2 more bunks plus an additional head = 2-4 more guests
So now you have 8 - 10 bodies on board, sleeping comfortably.
When it's time to get up, where do you put them?
Especially if it's raining?
Six on my Express is tight in the cabin

That was my thought when that 10meter aft cabin express was for sale up by me. Absolutely NO deck room! I don't know if the structural integrity of the deck/ceiling of the aft cabin could withstand all that punishment if you had a large group of people on board.RWS wrote:bunk arrangements on the 10 Meter International Express Cruiser:

I have to agree with you guys here.
I cant believe Trojan actually produced this model.
Not that it is bad looking or ugly, but as far as design, space planning and functionality on a scale of 1 to 10 I give it a -2!!
The only thing this type of boat is good for is 2 cruising couples spending a long weekend on her somewhere, each couple gets the privacy of a separate sleeping cabin and since its only 4 people total, daytime activities there wont be any problems stepping on each other.
The funniest thing about her, did you notice the fishing rod holders on the aft cabin railing??
Lets be serious, could you image standing on the aft cabin fishing anywhere besides in a cove where there are no wakes or swells etc.
Total waste of hard earned money if you ask me...

I like that
or how about the Edsel of the sea ! Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2011 7:05 pm
Edsel?
No not hardly
Realy depends on what your usage needs are.
A convertible with the aft cabin gives a tremendous versatility.
Not for someone who is big into fishing.
Two SEPERATE cabins ...
each with thie rOWN HVAC and HEAD and SHower?
Edsel?
REALLY ?
It totally depends on the needs of the boater.
Entertaining?
Overnighting?
A fewdeck chairs on the top of the aft cabin wiuth cocktails?
You and the wifeage in the fwd cabin with a newlywed couple in th eaft cabin raising hell?
Not too shabby.

And that box on the back of the 10m looks adhoc inside and out, seems they needed to get an aft-cabin boat in to the market fast and came up with this. IMO...
And no I'm not puttin' down TROJAN...All boat makers put out Volts.....

I can see a few celebrities wanting a boat like that.
"Here dear, stand here while I take your picture with the water and sun as a backdrop"
Ooops, I inadvertantly throttled up and...splash.....
That little railing isn't going to help much,
It scares me just thinking of standing on it
