Ron,
Because of the work that's been and what appears to be a new Yanmar (30 hours), I'd say she'd go for at least $30K.

I would have to agree with Scott. I own a 1978 Sceptre myself, and it sounds like the seller of the boat you are looking at has already completed my "wish list" of what I would like to do to my boat. Assuming the cost of the Yanmar/Bravo unit alone was probably mid $20K range, that would seem fairly reasonable. Good luck, sounds like a great boat. Would love to see pictures, if available.

Mid to high 30's. I saw a 78 IB with a 230 yanmar, I believe it went for $39,500.00 about a year ago

If my '75 Sceptre inboard had a 300HP Yanmar and was refinished I'd be a stock broker!
30k easy for the Seacraft enthusiast. One who doesn't know what we know may not pay.

I appreciate your input on the boat. We are negotiating,hopefully everything works out and I can be a seacraft owner.
