Three day fishing trip once a year. The rest of the season it's used for power lounging. :lol:

And how many of you consider performing maintenance, repairs & installing upgrades part of the pleasure end of owning a Trojan. I know that I do. I think it's a great hobby.

There was a guy named Joe Money that used to right comical articles in Boating Magazine and this is a quote from one of them. "I know, I am bankrupting my family, destroying my career, and ruining my relationships with other people, but boy, does the boat look great."
I can relate. :wink:

I have always felt that boating is a hobby not an investment and hobbies cost money and are great therapy, reducing stress and increasing pleasure......... and getting to better fishing holes :D

Some fishing for yellow perch. The rest for pleasure with some ice cold beer and good friends after a good day of cruising

I have a 28 ft Trojan docked on Catawba Island in Onio. Would like to hear from other Trojan owners in the area.
