Description
The Trojan 10 Meter Mid-cabin Express helped define the express cruiser market. This is a fine example of a benchmark model. Custom designed for the Bertram family she was a prized show boat. Here is your chance to own a very unique boat that has been maintained to the high standards of her heritage. NEXT CHAPTER is right at home on the French, Italian or Spanish Riviera due to her unique European styling and profile. She is a beauty no matter what angle you are viewing. On the bridge she has ample seating for four forward and up to 8 a stern and starboard in great comfort. The beverage station and refrigerator at the port side above makes for great ease in entertaining. Below she is both stylish and roomy with a newly remodeled and tastefully appointed 3 cabin layout for comfort and privacy whether dining or snoozing. The head is larger than most heads found on vessels twice her size and has a full standup shower as well. NEXT CHAPTER is in wonderful condition, looking far younger and newer than her years due to loving/professional maintenance. Last November (2006) through March (2007) she went in for dry-dock maintenance where we went through her with a fine-toothed comb and made even the minutest of repairs. This included a complete tear-down and rebuild of the port engine, which was a full rebuild including crankshaft, camshaft, pistons, carburation and all major other components due to picking up a plastic bag that caused a major overheat and engine failure. The starboard motor was thoroughly checked and received every possible maintenance item including all new ignition, fuel and cooling components deemed necessary. She runs like new and was on several trips this summer, so I am confident that anyone purchasing her will be a happy captain.
