There have been no posts about Triumph boats for a long time.
I assume people are still buying them.
Questions:-
(1) have they made any improvements in the last 5 years or so?
(2) I know the hull is "Ropelene"....I have heard the hull can expand or contract with temperature...is this true? especially when it's really hot out...
(3) I have heard they will bellyflex pretty bad if you don't get the trailer bunks or rollers set up optimally....is this true?
(4)......They aren't quite as beamy as similar boats...is this a big hinderance?
(5) Hard to mount downriggers and any hardware that screws in...as Ropelene won't hold a screw lke fiberglass does.......true?
(6) They don't get up and plane as well as similar boats..... always seem to be dragging their butt....true?
If you happen to own one that was made recently.....what are your likes and dislikes?
