Default Nice project boat or a bad deal?

What are your thoughts on this 35 cafe racer in the classifieds?
Is it a good or bad buy? Does anyone have any more information about the overall condition of the hull?

Any information is usefull!
Thanks/ Fred.

How does one "lose a strake"?????? Did it skid down the highway? My two cents would be for that $$ you could find a better deal on a complete boat.

It will cost ALOT of money to fix the hull, (probably the least of the cost) Repower, new drives and re rig

A Cafe not far from 1991 complete near me for $60K obo. When you factor in the repair and re-rig a complete 91' for $60K or under is a much better deal.
