Looking at a 2002 190 Center Console

I've had 3 boats and currently own a Crownline 250CR at our summer home in the Thousand Islands, NY. However, I'd like a run about for fishing, trips into town and pleasure cruising around the islands that are inaccessible with my Crownline.

I'm looking at a 2002 190 center console with a 90HP Yamaha with a T top that looks well taken care of. However, I'm new to Triumphs and Roplene construction. I've read a lot of good things about them, but also some like inability to hold screws, foam getting waterlogged making the boat heavy, fish boxes that drain into the hull as there are no through the hull drains, split transoms, flex problems, static electricity, bilge pump issues etc. and I'm hoping this forum will give me the information I need to make a buy/no buy decision.
 
Good Evening and Welcome Aboard!

Nice hull and I had one for 12 years, but that 90 in my opinion, simply does not have enough power to push that hull (I had a modified 150 on mine and it needed a 175) much less it has a T-top for even more drag :confused:

Here is another thread you can read for more of the basic comparisons https://www.performanceoutdoors.net/threads/plastic-boats.9191/

Now there are almost 14 years of information on Triumph/Logic Boats available in the Triumph Boat owners forums located here: https://www.performanceoutdoors.net/forums/triumph-boat-forums.132/ and as noted on the homepage welcome the Boat Owner forums are Private forums for Premium Member subscriber access only. But the subscription is only $12/year. If interested click on the "Go Premium" button in the upper right of the screen to learn more.

And if you do decide on getting that one or another, you have come to the right place for help and upgrade ideas for her. Once you become a Premium member, you can really access a lot of information for that hull, as well as a lot of other related topics.

Hope this helps?
