First Boat
Hello Everyone,
I just bought a 2003 170cc with a 60hp 4stroke suzuki. I saw the new triumps at a boat show and I liked what I heard about them. I could not afford a new one so I did the best I could. I took a test drive and there was a problem with the motor. The gas had a little water in it, the dealer added a fuel filter and some additives to the gas for the water. The second test dirive was great no problems. I will use this forum alot in the near future and would be glad for any advise anyone will give me, because this is my first boat and I could use all the help I can get. I live in CT and will be fishing close to shore most of the time.

You may know this already, but its important to keep Triumphs properly supported when out of the water to prevent warping of the hull. They come with a specially designed EZ load trailer with extra bunks to provide the added support. Its important that the transom not extend beyond the rear bunks when trailered, not more than 5 inches I think I read in the manual, but I keep mine cinched up to where the transom edge is even with the end of the bunks just to be extra safe. I just got mine too, an 06.

Best of luck, I have a 2003 170 Cool, very similar to the 17 CC. I had looked at these boats back in 2003 but like you could not afford a new one. I saw this one advertised last November and knew heading over to look it over that if it checked out I was going to but it. I have had great luck with the boat; it had a fuel filter installed already and look forward to some great fishing. Congrats
Dave
