Thought I'd share some pictures of FREEDOM. The ones on the hard are from last week, with the new 30" x 9" trim tabs. The ones at the marina are 2 years old with the Admiral.

At 3000 rpms she cruises @19k and wot 4100 rpms @28k, with the new trim tabs.

I love the white railings!!

Can you tell me more about them?

Are they powder coated/?

Was that standard or aftermarket?

Thanks for all comments, we're proud of her.

The powder coated rails were standard on the '90 models. I'm just lucky this boat spent it's first 18 years in fresh water. Since I've had it here, rust has began to show up where the rails go into the deck flanges, dissimilar metals. This tells me Trojan did not use stainless deck plates.

Nice, NICE, N I C E !

It's interesting just how this design continues to be contemporary.

The fiberglass swim platrorm is far easier to maintain than my teak and with the built in step and faired in sides gives her a$$ end a more updated look and actually makes her look a bit longer.

Thanks for the pix, we're always interested in more as it motovates us and gives us ideas.

Are you happy with the improvement you got with the trim tab upgrade?

"Are you happy with the improvement you got with the trim tab upgrade?"

Yes, from what little I've run it. The bay was calm when I ran from the shipyard back to the marina. I'll know more once I get her in some chop and play with the trim.
