    Is it worth fixing up

    I have a 1993 379T that needs restoring basically. It needs carpet,seats, some switches and/or wiring replaced and waxing. I was just thinking about selling it as is but don’t know what to ask for it. Just looking for some opinions of what it’s worth. Thanks

    More importantly is the Transom SOLID as well as the stringers and floor? The rest is cosmetic. That boat has a wood transom, stringers floor deck so if all that checks out good then yes it's worth restoring due to the price of boats these days. If it's rotted out then no.

    Thanks. I’ll try and check that out. I don’t know much about it or boats in general. Is it worth $1,500? I might just let it go to someone that knows what they’re doing.

    It's worth what someone will pay for it at this point. post a local add and see what happens.

    I’m not likely to get into anything. What I can’t figure out I will ask someone that does to show me. If I don’t sell it. But thanks for the positive words. You’re a real friend.

    I had a 95 379T, it was one of my favorite boats i've had !

    If it's solid and the finish is good fix it up and enjoy it!
