When you sell something, it should be exactly what you say it is... no more and no less. There was quite a bit of time spent talking with ...

No, The pics don't look that bad at all. But, pictures hide a lot! The boat was brought up from Florida and, of course is a salt water boat. I don't have anything against saltwater boats that have been taken care of, but this one was not. It was fished very hard and also has numerous fiberglass repa...

Other than numerous valve jobs, the engines, not including bolt ons, were all original and ran fine and had over 5000 hours on them. The bottom ends were a bit noisy so we ran Lucas oil treatmen...

speaking of 36's did they ever make a 36 express? i like the open concept, tons of deck space and no salon to drag fish slime into. Here in town, we have a F36 and a F32 that have the hardtop without a bridge. I have looked at both and could not see anything that would lead me to believe they were ...

I also average around 100 hours or so a year. This past year I logged just over 900 miles of boating bliss! About 750 of that was on my Trojan and the rest was on my fishing boat.

I am pretty fortunate as my boat is located directly between my house and my job. It takes me about 10 minutes from my house to boat, and about 5 minutes from my boat to work.
