Re: Price of 20 CC
JohnC,
What year is your hull? Most of the older hulls will need some major work and any that have been restored will command a high price - just check the market and you'll see what I mean. Older hulls restored and new power is the way to go especially if it is a classic SeaCraft. I bought my '71 20ft CC hull and trailer for $1500.00. Hull and deck was structurally sound but the transom was suspect(30 years and who knows how many motors). I put a new Honda 130 on and fished my a** of for 2 years before any restoration was done.
Right now I'm having a shop redo the transom, reengineer the live well and add hydraulic steering. My original goal was to enclose the transom and add a floatation brackett but the cost of extending my shaft etc was cost prohibitive. By the time it's finished I will probably have about have about $1,4000.00 - $1,5000.00 including original cost,motor and transom restoration just to give you an idea. The end result is pretty satisfying and much better than a new generic popout.
1500.00 is a good price for a project boat.
