Something that must be remembered about boats is what was said over 100 years ago by one of the great robber barons of American capitalism, J Pierpoint Morgan.

"If you have to budget to own a boat, you can't afford it."

"A boat is a hole in the water that you throw your money into."

Otherwise; enjoy.

The good thing about Boats is they hold there value, mine is worth more then what I payed for it 12 years ago.
I took it out last Month and it went really well from Mordiallic to Frankston and back.

A clean Haines Hunter with a good outboard should be worth well over $10,000 or even $25,000. ( need more detail )

Have a look in the trading post that should give you an idea of what it's worth.


Also are you buying or selling.
