Selling boats.

Hi all! After realizing that me Guillemot is way too much kayak for my needs (mostly protected flat water and streams) I've just finished stripping a much smaller boat. My question: How would one go about selling a perfectly good boat (been in the water twice) and how much would one realisticly ask for said boat. I remember reading about the "VALUE" of boats being $4000-$8000 in an earilier thread but I don't think that's realistic to actually make a sale. I would like to get my costs out of it as my time was spent having fun building and that's payment enough for me. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Paul

You can recover costs, and more...
