Going to have all the work done for you? Here are some figures:

New deck & transom core, + rebuild stringers = $5K - $7K
New windshield plexiglas = $1.2K
Repower labor incl. new stringer motor mounts - 100 hrs @ $75hr = $7.5K
Repower system = Mercruiser 350 MAG MPI/Bravo I = $15K
New aluminum trailer = $2.4K
PLUS all the miscellaneous like cleats, asstd SS hardware, paint or gelcoat, etc.

Total refurb cost over 2-3 years? $31,000 to $35,000. Worth it? You bet!
I Think the "pucker factor" just went up -off the charts!
It's Lots of work, the cost is justified. Labor is the factor here.
Personally, I'd do most of it myself. It's really hard for me to part with hard earned $$ if I am knowldgeable and physically able.
I have sucessfully rebuilt several other boats in the past.
