I really don't want to bust any bubbles here but let me put in my two cents worth speaking from experience and because I also own a "Rare" one.
There may only be 3 hulls made and they are rare...but that does not mean that they are worth more...maybe even less

Dang it Is. Trader,
Screw it then, I'm selling my 21. I'll get some pictures up soon in the other forum section (donation made 9/09) Just not gonna keep throwing good money after bad... Don't even like the boat... got brown trim...only came with one outrigger elbow (next owner will have two thanks to noble Bushwacker) although it did have some serious '60s down riggers...I may keep those (good for bounce-balling halibut and bombing threshers).
It ain't a '57 Bel-air but a Belair don't float...make your best bid - Do I hear 8 thousand??? 7.5K? come on guys, it didn't win a lot of demolition derbies but hey its in decent shape for an original '65 and has a freshly rebuilt MerCruiser type 1-C. Can't touch this... New drive pinion and new yoke assembly, resealed tight as a drum - everything...
My wife's gonna kill me for letting it go so cheap, but its clear I just can't win at boat flipping
In hindsight I wish I had met Fr. Franks tutor or sought advice from Fred...
P.S. 80overnighter, I think you are wise to keep the boat. It is a nugget, alright. Unfortunately you wouldn't likely get what it is really worth. It's a fine boat - probably even has some improvements over the later Seafaris, after all its an evolution. Oh, yeah, how about posting those picture Wee Heavy requested for the rest of us gawkers. Cheers.
