Triumph boat roll call


Moving up from an ole (1974) 19ft Wellcraft to a Triumph 210/215...I've noticed a few Triumph's in the avatars...Russ, fullclip, Katuna,etc Wondering if the BN Triumph owners would like to chime in and offer their experiences ...good and bad with a 10yr Baja Nomad, but a Triumph rookie??

I have had two...Good boats, maybe a little overhyped...and maybe overpriced...Biggest problem was minor, trying to make fasteners stay in. I would buy another one, if the price was right.

Mood: I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

I have a 210 with a 150 Yamaha that I am very happy with.

This is my first boat so I am no expert but all in all I like it.

IF there is one thing that I don't like it's the step up to get to the bow.

Also, I and other Triumph owners have a problem with water getting into the fish holds from the back of the boat (transom?) in the stern flowing through and not draining properly. I am trying to describe the area just in front of the motor.

All in all, I'm happy with her.
