Re: Calling all Woodies
WOW awesome remodel/maintience on your '67..ive got a '68 that I'm restoring. I too would be very interested in a site/blog just for woodies. Wood owners have specific questions not the usual gelcoat issues (wish that was all I had to complain about!) :shock: and it would be great to use such a foru...

New Water Pump advice
Hi All & thanks for the views.... Cut my hot water pvc lines when I removed it (Had to reinforce the cabin floor from the Hull up)... was no problem, used GatorCaps for the time being to seal it temporarily until I reinstall the tank. Upon sealing that, flipped on the water and ended up complete...

Seaward Princess Stove question
Aloha All......I have a '68 with a Seaward Princess three burner electric oven/stove. It is in great shape and I would like to keep it but I am finding it very difficult to find replacement parts. The burners do not heat up enough to even fry an egg! I'd like to buy new elements. Anyone faced this d...

Re: First Trojan, new to forums, tons of questions
Yeah, Wolf, I'm on the Fence about whether attempting to seal this original hatch or just upgrade to a Bomar or something comparable. I'd like to stay true to the style of the vessel but functionality is important also. Not prepared for the expense of a new hatch (carbs getting rebuilt) and it would...

Body paint for Wooden Trojan
Aloha All, And so the sanding begins.... What type/brand top paint would you use that could take the beating of the sun & weather fairly well? Is a primer or topcoat sealer recommended? Again, first boat, first restoration, thanks for all the advice!!! Thanks all http://i1068.photobucket.com/alb...

Flybridge Walls rebuild
Aloha All Previous owner used plywood on my '68s Flybridge. Although it's a wooden boat this would not have been my first choice! What do you recommend for the rebuild? I'd like to go with fiberglass. Maybe fiberglass over wood? First restoration, first boat, I need some seasoned advice. Thanks guys...

First Trojan, new to forums, tons of questions
First Trojan, new to forums :) I'm restoring a '68 31ft flybridge cruiser. First wood boat, first restoration. I've gutted it out, cleaned the inside. First priority is sealing the cabin from leaks. Storm last night... leaks everywhere especially from the deck hatch. All original sealing & hatch...
