REMOVING FLYBRIDGE FOR TRANSIT

Post by CBL »

I am considering the purchase of a 1981 Trojan F32. Moving the boat to its new home from an inland lake would require removing the flybridge for transport. ( I have already checked with a transporter.)

Question is-- how difficult is it to remove the flybridge? And does anyone have knowledge about whether the manufacturer used 3M 5200 to seal the jfkybridge joint?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to reply.

CBL, did you shop around? I know they have been transported with the right hydraulic rig and removal of the mast and plastic w/shield. Removal and reinstall is a PITA.

Transported my 81 F-32 from Lake Simcoe to Kingston ont . Didnt have to remove flybridge. The transport company used a Low boy trailer.
