Prop question

Does anyone have an idea about what size the prop should be on a F26 flybridge with a 5.7 LT and 1 to 1.5 tranny. It has been reported to me that this engine will produce 275 hp. This has been a long refit (rebuild) and I would really like to put the boat in the water once and not have to pull it ou...

On the 115 footer we use the cetol. First we use the 2 part cleaner/brightner on the wood. After it is a golden brown and dry we put 2 coats of the cetol, one a day. This will look good on the boat for 6 to 8 months, on a smaller boat it should last longer, less foot traffic. I am not a big fan of t...

Really? I thought these boats (tricabs) were worth a lot more than that.
Of course I haven't looked into buying one for 9 years. Back then every good one I looked at was in the mid 40''s

I dare not ask what the 32's are going for these days :shock:

tricab for 9.5K

Looks OK, new engines for 15K and you might have a good boat

IMHO you really don't want a surveyor that has ties to the current owner of the boat.

The F36 tri is a great boat, more than likely it's my next boat when I move up.

Tim, just tell me the colors of your canvas, boot stripe, trim, and the name of the boat and her home port and I'll make one up and post it here. Aaron, I'll fix the e in enterprise and change the colors to red and maroon for you. One question, do you have the big stripe on the Hull below the rail? ...

Mine never works right, every time I stop it quits working. No wait a minute that's my GPS. I guess I would use my compass the second the GPS stops working. I do though have my compass swung every 2 years or when I install something new at the helm. I also have the compass card ready at the helm as ...

I started with the Topaz but because the she is so tall (the tower) it makes the boat to small. I also want to put this logo (I am leaning towards the 32) on polo shirts and I want to still be able to see the boat clearly. The 26 would be perfect for shirts because the detail is much less than the 3...

Would like some opinions

I made up my new logo and can't decide which one to use. Also, while I was drawing these I thought that they would be nice for Trojan owners to have (just the boat) to put on shirts or hats so if anyone wants a drawing of their boat just let me know. I've done a 26 and 32, I can do just about any bo...
