If you want to end up with a great boat at a reasonable price (reasonable is relative), I'd start out with something better than an insurance boat so that you can spend most of the money on cosmetic stuff. The Berts have great electrical systems so that's not usually a problem. The 8V92TIs can be completely refurbed for $30K each, a new genset for another 20K. Figure another 30K for new controls, instruments and electronics. A good awlgrip job will run about 30 to 50K, complete interior refurb 50 to 100K, new canvas 10K, new props and shafts 10K. In Short Wave's case, I think you are a little light in the new controls, instruments and electronics. Ever see his daily driver? http://www.eisboch.com/instruments.jpg Eisboch Tom would be right at home in those 'Mad Max' movies out of Australia. Playing either the title role, or the Tina Turner role. |
