Looks to me like a 25, not a 26. here are some comparison photos;

advertised as a 1976 Trojan 25 ft. cruiser. Note the flatter profile of the deck.

Here is a '76 F26, which has the same lines as my '75 F-26.

there are a couple more photos of this boat on the Trojan photos page here:
http://www.trojanboats.net/Additional%20TB%20Photos.htm

Notice how the gunwale flares up a couple of inches starting just above the forward air intake vent. This is much less pronounced on the 25.

The fwd cabin windows are also very similar to the 25 cruiser

this brochure further illustrates the flattness of the deck flare on the 25 compared to the photo of the 26 above.

It almost looks like a 25' Sea Raider. If you look at some of the photos on Auxilliarycoms post "Valuing a Trojan" it looks almost similar. I'll have to locate my old 1975 brochure, but I do remember a 25' express cruiser that had a teak foredeck in 1975.

Are those wooden window struts supporting the hardtop?? I was under the impression that by mid seventies, Trojan didn't use wood up there but perhaps I'm looking at the photo wrong. The other question I have is about the xtra spray rails stretching so far up the bow. Haven't seen that before either but is something that reminds me of the 68-71 era. Anybody have a comment?

Hey, bringing this back to life. In the F25 brochure, what are the 8 holes cut in above the galley sink? For liquor bottles? Thanks.
