Perfect shape 83. No soft spots. Choice of cat fever or tequila sunrise sails. trailer with toy box and sail tube. hot stick, new shrouds, new jib line, beach wheels, jib traveler system, 6:1 harken blocks, anti pitch poling fins, new righting line, single trap system with bucket, fiberglass rudders etc.

Time to sell as I don't use it enough to justify it. What's you opinion on what it's worth?
Thanks!

Probably 2-3 grand. Depends on your area too, I'm sure SoCal has a bigger used boat inventory than say the Midwest. Good luck!

Would you sell either set of sails separate and for how much?

I will, but only after the sale of the boat. I'm going to give the new owner the choice of sails and then sell the other set seperate.

No holes. Not much crisp left as they are from 83. Probably only been used once a year for the past ten years. NOT rotten. Color is still very good. Always stored indoors.

If I where you, and if possible the best time to sell a boat is right before the 4th of July. There are more people looking for boats then. Also I would say you could probably get $2,500 or a little more if you find the rite buyer.

I'm considering selling my 16. Its an 86 boat, yellow hulls and yellow vinyl tramp with 84 Nationals Yellow sails #89013. EPO rudders, double trap wires, overall good condition w/aluminum Trailex trailer. I'm in NW Indiana. Any ideas what it might be worth?
