Trojan Boat Forum

took my shrink wrap off and stored it away till next year, im looking at April 11th or 15th to go in, anyone one else in the Northeast getting anxious?

Boat stays in the water year round,ice has been gone for weeks now. Went to marina and de-winterized today. Engines-check, generator-check, AC-check, fresh water system-check, oil changed-check. Will be out on the river tomorrow.

Taking the shrink wrap off April 2. Planning on launching May 7. Have to refinish the cockpit railing between the two.

Stay in . But coming out in a month or so for a week or so .

It's always boating season here....

Funny, I just pulled mine out.

It always seems there should be a travel lift for my wallet as well.

1 May for me here in Kentucky. Whiskey Girl is ready and I just need to apply for my permit to haul her the 30 miles to her summer drift. The only concern is the newly fabricated tri-axle trailer I modified for her. I modified the trailer with a center slide so I can launch on a shallow ramp. I also upgraded the 50 year old fridge over the winter. Come on 1 May.........................

I actually dont mind the off season although at times I envy the people down south. The off season gives me time for repairs and improvements, these are things that seem to get pushed off when the season is in full swing. This off season ive been doing some of the teak over, powder coating hardware, relocated the am/fm radios and added phone chargers, new battery charger, replaced a cracked side window and finishing up installing custom made window shades for the side windows. I imagine if I were able to boat year round maybe id get more of my "projects" done but around here when the weather is right, you go!

tomorrow! Been working my a$$ off for two weeks now! Still tons to do!

Stays in water. Started the sand and repaint project. Installed new carbs, flybridge is in prime. Working it when I can after work. Doing spring haul out mid April. Looking forward to warmer days and low gas prices!

You guys are making me look bad!

I promised my wife to build a large shed this spring, so the boat is sitting and not being worked on. I did buy a bunch of parts for projects over the winter, so besides bottom paint and everything else that needs to be done below the water line, I have some major projects to complete. I hope to be in the water in May, but we'll see...

I went in in October, after being hauled for some engine work. Trojan manual sez winter in the water, so I do. Helps to wrench every last good boating day out of the season, and get an early start to the next.

Went in today, rolled across fox harbor in 3 1/2 ft of water, very nerve racking.

1:30 pm Tuesday. Rudder extensions on and excited to see what difference they will make with auto pilot.

Having a new enclosure installed while on the hard. $$$$$$

Probably in the water for May 1
