    Wow. Unless you can determine who built it of what, from what, for what etc. etc etc. I'd say its worth a cup of coffee at Starbucks, maybe less. It isn't a particularly modern design, so it has probably been sitting around for a while.

    Not trying to be funny. A well engineered boat is a lot more then a hull with stuff in it. The hull and the structure that support it, the rig and all the associated loads are all engineered together so they become a structural package. You really have no idea what you have here without hiring someone to take a look.

    Remember the hull is a small part of the total cost, but a big part of keeping the water where it belongs (on the outside).

    Assuming the core is not full of water it is worth maybe $1,000.00.
