For that price it could be a good deal for someone looking for that model.

Looks like a deal . wonder what diesels are in it ? do not belive its a repower by looking at the vents I bet it came with them . ( my guess is Cummins 504)

Needs lots of TLC. That means everywhere you look, something is broken, damaged or needs replacing. I looked at a lot of crappy boats that were "in great shape". The ones in need of TLC were usually quite junky.

It has no swim platform... You know it's a real fishing boat!

Its a 1974 with 1974 Cummins 504 Diesels ( rebuilt at 2000 hours ) great engines but.... as they are older type parts can be $$$ and maybe harder to come by

Someone on another forum was interested in the boat and went and took a look.
He did post some other pics that he took during the visit. He did not speak highly of the boat and stated that it needs a LOT of work.

Did you call them? Ad doesn't say.

Turbo or NA?

Not sure naturally aspirated 504s (v8 203HP max) would even plane this boat out ...

wow! not alot of nice things said on there about trojans. if that boat didn't spend it whole life being eatin alive by saltwater it might be worth it.
a charter captain i know up here just bought an f36 with two brand new 454's for $6500. granted, he had to put the motors back in but, who cares for that price!
