    I see a lot of negative comments but first off, if you are worried about money then yes you can't afford her so move on. It's called a yacht not a row boat. It's in beautiful shape and the cosmetic updates from the 70s is minimal. A classic for sure and in wonderful shape. Thanks for the presentation. I hope she finds a new owner who can appreciate her.

    I skipped school with a friend in the early seventies. His father owned a wooden Trojan on the Chesapeake bay. We took the boat out that day and ran into a submerged dock piling. The boat sank fast. We were close to shore and swam in. Not long after my friend was in the army.

    I remember this style of boat growing up in Florida. Even the 65 ft. Connie at a thousand dollars a foot.
    Picture yourself on this boat some evening having dinner with friends. while it’s pelting down rain. How warm and
    Inviting compared to so many plastic boats made today.

    My father was a Trojan dealer in the 70's and 80's. I worked for him as a teenager and endless amounts of teak cleaning on them. Pics put a smile on my face as I've only seen a few still around. The teak however not so much!

    we had the 36' of this ilk. was a "trojan" on the mississipi with many voyages from memphis to vicksburg, outiings nearly every week. same 325's felt awesome throttle down. this one looks mint. the real questions are engine conditions and structural integrity but, wow, nice.

How old are the motors, no one make parts for a 1971 motor, when was the last refit. Can it be moved , or trucked, how heavy is it. Are the seat cushions, 1971, ( wow, what a smell if they are.).

      Parts for a 71 engine which is a small block Chevy are not only available, they are very inexpensive. the cushions in the V berth definitely look original, but they also would only cost 2 or 3 hundred dollars to replace. my concerns are appliances, head and all the harvest gold and avocado green everywhere 🤣.
