A Cool Find

[RichSchink]

We just purchased a 1974 Trojan F-32 from the original owner of 41 years. Upon going thru the cabinets my wife found this ashtray. I guess they were given out to the owners way back in 74

Good stuff, great little find...even more amazing ,how you keep the same boat from new for 41 years must be some sort of record...Mike

The boat has been on Lake Norman,NC for it's entire life. We are bringing her down to Myrtle Beach,SC this week where she will still be in freshwater
on the ICW!

my dad had our 1972 f-36 tri cabin, (factory delivered with custom options in may 1972) until september 2008. i grew up on her and knew every nook and cranny and every sound on that boat. i have a scrap book with all the ORIGINAL sales documents and work orders. i knew we customized her at the factory, but i never knew the bow rails were OPTIONAL back then. some of the items my parents added were:

teak toe rails and cover boards
shore water hookup
30/30 amp shore power hookup
teak swim platform and boarding ladder
engine hour meters (yep, they were optional too)
the list was rather extensive................

thought i'd add to the post.
