It has crusaders 350hp= 454's.

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.
