Wanting to buy my first Trojan

Hello,
I have been wanting to buy a trojan for years. I love the way they look sitting on a trailer, anchored, or motoring across the water! I'm looking at a 1977 30' with twin 318s. It has a hard top but I'm not sure of the model. I'm having trouble finding any like it so I can compare prices, any suggestions?
Thanks,Terry

What condition is it in? Were the engines and transmissions rebuilt recently? Can you post any pictures. With older boats, the condition they are in has a large effect on the price.

The F30 is a great boat!!
There are a couple hardtops and 1 flybridge for sale in the Midwest here - freshwater boats.

Oh,
Prices range from about $4k to $10k with most being in the $5k to $8k range.
I've seen lots of F30 hardtops on 3 axle trailers but on the flybridge model, you have to take the bridge off to tow.
