Default I need an honest opinion...

how much is it worth?

with TRS drives and gimbals
without TRS drives and gimbals

I am seriously considering selling the boat and want to know what price will move it?

it is a 1987 Cafe Racer with:

new dash with Autometer gauges
new marine machine full hydraulic steering
new cockpit cover
new carpets

original gelcoat - near perfect
original interior - also near perfect

triple axle Myco gooseneck trailer

No motors?
Work it backwards... motors 15k each from JC = $30k
Konrads @ $13K each = 26K.
Install and rigging = $10K(?)

Total to get running... $66K.

I'd guess you could sell for 35-40K? w/o drives?
40-45k with drives?

Sean, sorry I can't look at it.
I promised myself not to. I'm not allowed to buy a boat now.

that's good rob...cause it's not really for sale right now...

if i decide to sell it, i'm probably a year away from making that decision. right now i'm just looking for opinions...

i've been kicking around the idea of a top gun lately too, so there are many decisions to be made

on second thought, there really isn't anything out there that suits me...too many colors...
