well, they go four to six thou here, installed. a really, really simple
K-Mart beach toy like one goes a couple grand.

new thru-hulls are a lot less, and may be the difference between your making
port or the bottom.

Do consider, however, that maybe you wouldn't be sinking if you had spent
part
of the the $6,000 cost of an installed inflatable rubber saucer on new
thru-hulls.

$6000??? You could tow a spare yacht for that sort of money!

Most liferafts that are used on 30-40' sailing vessels over here cost less
than $3300.
4 man rafts are available for less that $1800.00
