At my marina, we have a big Trojan family. Six on my dock. Thought I'd post a couple of them.
My brother's '77 F32, with big block chevys (454)- fast!
My friend's '80 F30, Chevy small blocks/Marine Power
Mine again...during a boat parade. '85 F32, Crusader 270s
Another friend's '74 F36, Chrysler 440s. Parade.
Another friend's '82 F36, 460 Fords

WOW, some real nice Trojans.....out here in the west there doesn't seem to be as many. There are two at my dock, mine and a 1972 42' flush deck cruiser (according to the owner). The 42 footer is currently for sale for $28K. It is pretty much original and would be a major project......but if someone had about $60-70K and a couple years, you would have a spectacular Trojan......................John

Tony, we are on the Potomac River, in Colonial Beach VA. About 38 miles up from the Chesapeake Bay. We make some trips up to Wash DC and down to the bay destinations as well.
We live in Maryland about 2 hours north but drive down and stay on the boat almost every weekend, we have a covered slip.
We actually bought our Trojan from the west coast of Florida- Panama City Beach. Flying down and running out in the gulf, fishing, was fun...for awhile.
Then had it shipped up here about 5 years ago.
Yes, we all have a good time and we love our boats!

Thanks for reminding me why I've been killing myself in the the bilges of my F-36 since last October installing diesels. I have never seen a boat as beautiful as a Trojan in the water. Even sitting still they look fast!
