Happy New Year from new member

Post by Towboat Ed »

Im new here ,my first post. I have a 1970 25 ft.Trojan Marlin Center Console.
From what I can find on these boats , which is very little, so far ,Im thinking that they did not produce many. If you happen to be on I-95 tomorrow,you might see her Northbound between Fl.and NC. You cant miss her ,she`s Orange & Yellow. I have a new 130 HP Turbo 4-cyl diesel to install. Any info on this boat would be greatly appreciated.
Im looking forward to learning from you`all.
