I fear I agree. If I were purchasing I might be prepared to pay a nominal 25 quid or something, but basically as a boat with a gold anodised mast and tufnol cleats it is surely well over 50 years old and as it's of an of an obscure/extinct class, pretty much valueless. |

Looks like the sort of boat the seller would pay you to take away! Especially given the cost of a new road base.

Looks similar construction and age to a MK3 Gull (also Proctor) they are put for sail between £350 £750. I have a MK1 again similar construction. The fore and aft tanks had waterlogged foam that I removed. The foredeck was barely attached so well worth checking out those areas. I think you are pretty determined to buy but this might help in the negotiation.
This is what was in my forward tank, you won’t need to add a hatch, it’s all about how much you time want to spent repairing |

It looks similar to a Lark, all up weight I'd guess not more that 150kg, maybe 200 with the launching trolly (Google suggests a hull weight of around 100kg). Value, not very much, probably no more than, say, €250 without a road base (and it would have to be complete, with reasonably usable sails and in pretty good condition to be worth that much IMO). Sentimental value though is for you to determine.

Hello everyone,
I am going to buy a Marlin 13ft Ian Procton design and I am having a hard time finding similar boats and I am wondering if anyone can help me: - Do you know how much the boat weighs, to buy a trailer. - How much do you estimate the cost. It comes with daggerboard, rudder, one oar and two sets of sails. Attached are the pictures. I am currently being asked for about 850€ and I like it, it has emotional value in addition to what the boat itself means, but I wanted to know other valuations.  |
