Default Re: Value of a repair

I understand the the appeal of the SCs...that is why I bought the MA. Yes, I plan on keeping it a LONG time. I live on a big lake and I hope my Grandchildren grow up appreciating this boat...maybe someday enheriting it if they don't bury me in it as well. I am going to reuse the steering and batteries and several other components that were working well and newer. But you are probably right, I have rose colored glasses on re the cost to complete...BUT, it is my story to my wife and I am sticking with it.

But the question was is $3500 labor and material to repair/refinish a good value? From reading posts here and seeing what gets done my gues (a real SWAG) is that I would have at least $2-2.5K in materials if I did it myself. So it would seem that the $3500 is a pretty good deal if the quality is there. Am I on track? THX!
