This boat has perfect wood, perfect chrome and seems to need some motor work and other details, but if the going value is 25% of that I would be thrilled. The owners had more in receipts for the work done at a pro shop than they even want for it, so I prob cant go wrong
thanks again, it is such a neat boat.

I just had to look it up, and it
is an interesting boat.
Ask any collector who has restored used wooden boats. You'll find a "collection of receipts" will always be higher than the value that is in the boat.
You may not go wrong at a heavily-discounted price, but it may take some time to find a buyer for an article that isn't yet perfect and still make a little money in the transaction.
Then again, you could start a bidding war with
Lakesrider.
