Trojan Boat Forum

Your boat looks considerably larger than 27' feet to me, comparing the amount of deck space to my 26'. The on-deck booth seating is also unusual and wonderful.

Plus your unusual swim platform adds several more feet.

Hi Frank, Thanks for the photo of your great boat. What year and model is it? I'd love to have a boat like that with that type of platform, but your model is configured differently than mine so mine will never be able to accommodate a platform like that. However, if I ever get a bigger boat, I'd con...

Thanks for the great photos. I'm inspired by how well your swim platform looks after it was restored. Quite a transformation! I have located an old swim platform (needs refinishing) but I'm unsure about whether or not to purchase it because it is shorter than the width of my boat. If I install it, i...

Thanks for the info. I'm leaning towards a 200 watt (4 x 50 watts) Kenwood car stereo with detachable face and wireless remote control, which plays CD, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3, iPod-ready, Sirius satellite ready, etc. A salesman told me that all car stereos now are 4 ohm but I haven't seen that in the spec...

Thanks for your input. Can you post some photos of where your stereo was factory installed, and what the speakers and switches look like? I also want to create some sun pads for the front deck so I'd like to see photos of those also. I appreciate your help and photos!

Thanks for the photos. If anyone finds a used teak swim platform, please let me know, then I'll work on installing it. I will seek someone in Chicago to help me or I'll hire them to do it for me, as I want this done well and can't risk creating a leak, of course! Thanks.

Hello all, I'd like some advice on what brand/model of cd stereo and speakers I should install on my boat. It currently has no tunes and apparently never has (can you believe it?). I bought it this way but want to add a stereo. Should I look for a marine grade stereo, since I'm installing it inside ...

Thanks for the photos of your boat and swim platform. I'm eager to see the photos of how it attaches to the boat. Can you tell me how high off the water the platform should be, and how far down from the top edge of the fiberglass edge railing? My boat seems to be a little different since it's a 1977...

I'd love to see some detailed photos. If you are willing and able to help me find an appropriate swim platform, I'd be grateful. I hope to find one on a junker parts boat, or online, but I am not lucky in my search so far. Thanks.

I'm looking forward to seeing your photos. How wide was the teak swim platform and was it new or used? I've been searching on ebay but there haven't been any offered. Maybe when springtime comes more will be on the market? I need advice on how to attach a swim platform, screws, adhesives, etc. Is it...

Hello, I'm new to this forum and hope someone will be interested in helping me. Last summer, I purchased a 1977 Trojan F-26 Express hardtop and had a wonderful time. I had trouble with the engine stalling several times throughout the summer, but changing the fuel filter seemed to help a lot, and a m...
