When you say redone, just how redone? Did you check transom, floor, stringers, DECK carefully for moisture? Even on a 16 hull it needs looking over from top to bottom, anything attached or mechanical for condition. If real nice my opion in my area $3500-5500. The real original nice ones will always be a few worth more, but that is a tough call! I would get someone with good boat savvy to eye ball it, there are some really knowledgeable guys on the board.

Phil is right. Moisture in the stringers, transom and deck will cost $4k to fix. Been there done that. Pull a bolt from the motor mount and stick an ice pick in it to see if it's soft. If it goes in easily the transom has problems and most likely the stringers also.

Boat has been done by on of the best repair guys on the east coast so I would say structuraly perfect with new awlgrip only draw back newly rigged on a galv.trailer. It is very clean. How many actually built?

Hey WingWing... are you a buyer?? I know where there is a totally redone sixteen with new transom, paint,etc. but the people spent allot of time and money on it so it won't be cheap!!!:garfield: :cistineb: :cistineb: :cistineb: :biggrin: :biggrin: :beer: :beer:
