Default Re: Hull Changes

Sam - 23ft seacraft's are very expensive these days. Take the $3,000 (cost for materials) and spend it on a used 16ft carolina skiff with a 9.9hp.

You'll save yourself about 2000 man hours and retain the full value of that 23ft seacraft.

approx value of a 23ft hull in working condition => 10K - 25k depending on the condition.

The minute you cut it up and make it a 17ft . . . the resale value will drop by 90% (at least).
