Gentlemen what would you reckon is fair market for a good conditiin mid 90s 38 with stock 502s with between 300-400 hrs, on a decent steel trailer with some extras like bimini and cockpit cover?
Also can you render an opinion of how one might expect this boat to run at WOT and cruise (3500 Rpm) given normal prop, which i believe is typically 28p?

thanks

This will be interesting, I'll bet it's going to be hard to nail down a price in this crazy car and boat market.

What are they currently asking? Any pictures?

hi 40s.

I was thinking $52,000 tops for "Good" condition. $60,000+ for "Excellent" and better power options.

I think that is right on the money. I'd suggest you instead consider the ex. Larry Smith 38 personal boat for sale here on OSO. Most likely no structural repairs are needed, much higher build quality than a Wellcraft produced boat, and all that's needed is a trailer to have a turn-key classic.

Larry Smith's ex. 1987 Team Scarab 38.

Classic

Yes, a true classic. Larry liked his boats white I guess.

whats the layup on this 38 LS, glass, kevlar ?..........with 502 mpi's what will it run gps high 60's ?

Upper 60s to low 70s depending on load according to Dan at Archer Marine. Dan probably has the built-sheet on it, and so probably does the broker Joe. Late '80s was also the time when Larry started vacuum bagging some of the hulls. Might be one of those?
