2004 TRIUMPH BOATS 210 CC Triumph's 210 CC may be a lightweight, but it's no pushover. Load this boat up with a bunch of fishing gear, fill the bait tank and bring along a few of your friends, and it is going to settle nicely down into the water. Fast. Good. Cheap. The classic school of thought tells us that we can have two out of the three in any combination, but never all three at once. However, Triumph has proven that it can be done with its 210 Center Console fish boat. The 210 CC is fast not only when it's in the water, but also on the assembly line. Triumph uses Roplene roto-molded polyethylene to build dual-hull boats in one seamless piece, so it drastically cuts down on production time. Roplene construction also means that the 210 CC is good for the environment. There are no hazardous air pollutants or materials generated during the manufacturing process, and both the boat and mold are 100 percent recyclable. The quality of the 210 CC's construction, however, is more than just good — it's great. Triumph's claim to fame is that it makes the "World's Toughest Boats," able to stand up to the most rigorous abuse. Let's not forget our favorite of the three: cheap. Recent enhancements to Triumph's factory, along with Roplene's cost-effective manufacturing process, keeps production costs low, resulting in a lower MSRP for new boat buyers, to save big bucks. A Whole New Image In 1999, Genmar acquired Logic, the company that had introduced the Roplene roto-molded polyethylene construction system back in 1994. The innovative Roplene system received a lot of attention when it won the North Carolina Governor's New Product Award in 1997. That was followed by the National Society of Professional Engineers Best New Product award in 1998. The technology is once again on display — aboard the 210 CC. Last year, Genmar announced that it had made substantial improvements to the Roplene system, which warranted the introduction of an entirely new brand name. Hence, the company Logic was renamed Triumph Boats. Genmar expanded the Durham, North Carolina plant to 85,000 square feet and installed the world's first shuttle-oven system, which can charge, mold and cool in one automated, computer-controlled operation. With a shuttle-oven system, a polyethylene compound powder is poured into a high-temperature mold mounted in a large convection oven and rotated both vertically and horizontally. The oven's heat melts the powder, which forms the boat. The mold continues to rotate during the cooling stage to ensure an even, consistent thickness. This sophisticated machine is capable of producing boats up to 23 feet long with amazing precision in a single shift, which is just a fraction of the time it takes to build a fiberglass boat from start to finish. As a result, retail pricing can be drastically reduced for the Triumph brand, which currently offers 13 different m
