New to Trojan

Post by Blinky »

Hi everyone,

I hope everyone North is enjoying the winter and everyone down south are having a blast boating.

I am new to Trojans, my wife and I just got an 1988 F-32 in an excellent condition. I looked for this model for many years, this is the best looking F-32 I've seen anywhere. The gentleman we got it from, recently completed about $40K renno. Redid stringers, hoses, hot water tank, cleaned the fuel tanks, new head tank, took out and resealed all fittings and rail, new bilge paint, new carbs, etc. The marina did a lot of the work, but he did a lot of the prep work himself. Lots of passion and dedication. I'll post some renno pics if I can get them.

We are new to this forum, therefore we just wanted to say Hi. Here are a few pics of our new (to us) boat:

It will go in Bay Moorings in the spring, currently stored inside at Meaford (Southern Georgian Bay). I live in To though. :)

I got to join this forum as I only heard good things from the previous owner of my boat. I've seen your boat restoration project. Quite the undertaking, I think one must be very talented to work with fiberglass like that and have the vision. I usually leave everything to the marinas, but they charge an arm and a leg. :) Nice work on your boat! Good luck!
