I am a official Trojan owner now....

Post by Hardeight »

We I purchased the 88 m.c. express last night. My survey came out well structurally and mechanically she is solid..... There are some maintenance items that need to be done but nothing that wouldn't have come up anyway. I will get some photos later and post them. Thanks to everyone for there input and advise on what to look for, and I hired a good surveyor. more to come.....

She is a 10 meter international. I met with the last owner today to go over all the systems. I now have all the original brochures and paper work. Very Cool. In the brochure she is listed and the "Original Temptation Part II" There are some minor issues, needs new fridge below, needs new remote spot light ( not working at all ), needs new shore power plugs ( current ones are burnt and sparked across ) believe from loose connections. Has a non- protected plug in engine compartment ( which I will remove ) but over all she is in good condition. I will be doing upgrades and modifications to meet what I want in a vessel like this.... I am sure I will need help..... LOL..... as soon as I can figure out to attach photos here I will.......
