Triumph Boats (210 and 215 cc)

[DuffyB]

Any intel on these boats? They are different in terms of the Roplene plastic construction versus typical fiberglass. Interested if anyone has any information on these "indestructable" boats.

Thanks in advance.

Duffy,

Sent you a PM in response to another thread. Not sure if you received it.

Friend of mine is a dealer for Triumph. Kinda cool construction & as you say pretty hard to damage. Only problem I've seen is that it's hard to keep a "fiberglass" like gloss sheen on the hull. Also harder to repair skuffs & gouges in surface.

I ran a triumph 21cc for the last 2 years with a suzuki 140 on her. I really don't have one bad thing to say about them. I had that boat in 6 to 8 footers and didn't have any problems. The 21 cc can fish 3 to 4 guys with no problem, there's plenty of fish storage, and a nice livewell. The only problem i used to have was the fish boxes didn't drain that well, i used to have to wash them out and suck the reamaning water out with a shop vac. I just used soap and water to clean it and never had any problems. If there's any other questions i can help you with feel free too ask.

My buddy has the 21cc and he likes it. I've been on it once and like it as well - but it does feel like it's "flexing" more than a glass boat in a chop. Kind of a weird soft feeling. I think I could get used to it - like a water bed. He also says that for some reason it does not track straight at trolling speeds...something which does not bother me.
