Trojan center console

Post by JuiceClark »

My gas engine mechanic just bought what appears to be about a 25' Trojan center console with twin outboards. I haven't seen the hull number yet, but I'd guess it's about 1980ish. It's a really nice lookin' ride...wonder why people still buy new stuff.

Anyway, did Trojan make center consoles? Or is this some kinda renovation and rebuild of a hull?? I'd post a few picks if I knew how on this site...sorry.

Trojan did make Center Consoles, they called them Marlin 25, they used the same hull as the 25 cruiser. I owned a Marlin for about four years great boat wish I still had it!

Can you imagine....Shamrock boats made a fortune selling their junkie boat with an inboard but the Trojan faded away. There's just no accounting for quality in the boat biz! Thanks for your info.


Buckknekkid,
They're workin' hard up there to stay on schedule. Stuck in the minute detail work of faring every little line and angle with glass putty. Mold should be done in 45 days! (that means 67.5 days in boat language)

I need to post some new pics. Tell the wife only $800K will cover it...what a baaaargain!
