That is not a Trojan ID Number If it is a Trojan it has been renumbered
poss. when it was exported ? That hull ID comes up as

ABBATE NAUTICA USA INC a importer that is out of bussness

Not sure how to post a photo on this site however it is definitely a Trojan just not sure which model either a F24 or F25 it is 7.9mtrs long and has a beam of 2.3 and carries Trojan badging close to the windshield and matches shape of pictures of trojans on the site. What I really need to know is what motor was it likely to have had, screw size and pitch, rudder dimentions.

Can you e mail me photos of it? Do you have any other numbers ? The one you have do not seem right . look at the right side of the stern of the boat

could be a 25, did you get that 2.3 meters at the stern of the boat? That could be the problem. if it is a 25 it should be about 2.8 meters at the widest point.

We have an f 26 in my marina that looks real close to that boat. Probably has a 318 in it too. Teak aft deck? It should look real nice when it's all cleaned up & boot stripe is back on.

Ian,

From https://www.trojanboats.net/zencart/

The 1974-1975 F25 Express looks JUST like your boat ...

They offered a model 251 (Cruising Cockpit), 252 (Fishing Cockpit) and a 253 (? cockpit) ....

1975-1978 F25 Express ... looks similar to your boat ... but different cockpit, windows and top ...
