Hey, quick question for you guys....
I happened to bump into this ad...
http://saginaw.craigslist.org/boa/2088232026.html
40 rivets leaking tells me that there may be some damage there, but that aside, I really like that hull!
Anyway, just for the heck of it I emailed him and asked how much he wanted for just the hull. He hit me back with...
"I'd go $450 (I figure I could get about that much selling it for scrap).
Let me know."
I hear that a lot from guys who are trying to sell off their trashed hulls. You know...
"I can get $X.XX at that scrap yard so it's worth at least that."
So here is my question.
Is he accurate? Can he really get $450 out of a 16.5' aluminum hull at the scrap yard?
Just wondering is all.
Any scrappers out there?
