Sounds reasonable to me, unless you want to disassemble them & part them out & get rid of the hull....;)

That's a pretty good offer IMHO...for the whole mess....

You could probably get about 1500-1800 (each) for "good tight" Cobras. and maybe 200-300 for each good condition gimble/transom mount.

Engines, manifolds, shift plate, ESAs, etcs could net you several hundred more.


Cheers,


Rick
