What's it worth?
 

:confused:

What would a '86 Cafe with 540Hawks (585HP) and Speedmaster III factory setup roughly be worth these days in need of some TLC?

whatever someone feels comfortable to pay, some will say very little due to tlc, others will look at amout of parts there and base off that... Cafes are all over right now... high and low.. all depends...

a similar on ebay went up to 19k, reserve not met...tough market for seller right now...

Thank's well taking into consideration, the power setup which is probably the most important factor as a Cafe with the most basic setup (360HP)? is not as all as attractive as a Cafe with Hawk 540's (585HP), if we say both are in need of TLC, I would think..

For what I know the lowest priced one in need of TLC is the one for 26K with similar engine setup...so anything lower than that would make or should make one feel comfortable?

What would be considered a steal here in this scenario and market?

Also can you go by the value of a survey here, which takes all factors into consideration?

I'd same 20-25k would be a steal depending on what TLC it need. I paint and interior are usable then the nember is good. if the power needs completely gone thru (engines, drives, transmissions) your number will be double that in a hurry.

As for the survey value. I depends on who did it. If they are a performance surveyor then you have a chance if not you have just as good a shot using KBB.

Witch one is it?

It's not on the market at the moment and I dont know of another Cafe with the factory installed original 540 Hawks and Speedmaster III setup..or what other ones are out there?

I'd say it's worth what ever you can part it out for, in case you don't decide to use it later, or rebuild the boat later or what ever you're looking to do with this thing. Worse case, what's it worth in parts? Did you see the one on the Lipship site? They're asking 39k I'm sure they would take less, don't know anything about the mechanics but the paint and interior look great. That doesn't seem like a bad price, maybe you should give Phil a ring before you buy this other boat. Just a thought...

Are you talking about the sweeden boat if so that's a great buy!
