The trailer is the biggest real asset.

Why? it's steel
You're right. It looks painted. Still not so bad, especially if it's
been launched from a hoist and not dunked.
The boat is obviously never going
to be competitive, but it could make a real fun daysailor.
With that draft? I guess if one had free use of a hoist.
Hoists aren't hard to find. And you could still ramp launch it if you
really wanted to... have to cut a notch in the rear bunk, maybe. Or keep
it in the water.
Last summer I met a little old lady (well OK, a fair bit older than me
but obviously in good shape) who has a Star. She's the head of the math
department in the Midwest and singlehands it for fun on nice days... I
guess what she calls a nice day, she means light wind... but still, I
was impressed.
