I dont want to offend anyone here as to what they would or would not do BUT for me I would not want to put another 150 days of work and $30,000 in any boat that I could not prove by title it is what I says it is. For me its a part of owning a 77 Potter built and its true Value.
My example would be in the Auto antique world. Which is more valuable a 1966 427 Cobra or a Cobra kit car that looks just like the 1966 with all new parts?
The 1966 is worth Millions and the other is worth under 50 thousand.
I know SeaCraft boats have never YET appreciated in value. But I also know there are more than one item I have thrown away as junk that if only I knew then what I know now I would have kept it
Check this antique boat for $84,000

Who knows, maybe one day we will see Potters for this amount.
