Congratulations on joining the Trapper family, as a T500 owner I am slightly biased, but it would be fair to say that no finer boat can be bought for the money. You are purchasing a very rare model and you would do well to log onto the Trapper owners Forum
http://www.trapper.8m.com/
Here salty sea dogs will give you all the advice you require, allthough the 950 may be light on owners.
All the best with your new ship
I noticed a Barberis Show 34 for sale in Malta, do you know anything about this yacht, it is with Mediteranian Yacht Sales in Gzira /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Trapper 950s
Hi Again Tyrone,
No, unfortunately not - I currently have a classic Six Metre, but plan to sell in the next 2 years. A T950 really is what I want though, and I see that Alerion of Adur is up for sale again after less than 2 years, in Amble Marina.
There was a great site, dedicated to Trappers, with a big section (contributed to partly by me) on the Mistral 31 (which became the T950), and the 950 (it was at www.clydesailing.co.uk/trappers/T950.html - but I've just discovered that it's gone off-line). It had the makings of a complete catalogue of Mistrals and T950s, the only 950s missing being Eagle Bay and Hi-Flyer.
I also had a very nice e-mail from Rob Humphreys a couple of years ago about Rollercoaster, the Mistral 31 protoype, which came a very close second in the 1982 (?) Half Ton Worlds.
My e-mail address is dave_seer@hotmail.com - I'd love whatever photographs you have.
I wish you all the very best with Eagle Bay - I hope you enjoy her, and hope to hear from you soon.
Cheers
Dave

I sailed 1000's of miles in a Trapper 501 which my uncle built from the hull/mouldings up and it was an extremely safe sea boat, good speed and pointed well. The only reason he sold it was to get a larger cruising boat (GibSea Master 96). As far as I know the boat is still happily sailing the East coast area. The Trapper was a very "strong" boat built well!!
