a dink of similar size - a good condition kent ranger / rick passage MINTO (a lapstrack 9' sailing dinghy) goes for $1000 to $1500 USED in the seattle area. you can find one every now and again for $500-$700 in poor condition without the sailing rig. like the m-dinks a MINTO does not come on the market all that often. $700 for a good condition, though in this case, pre-M-dink boat doesn't seem out of line IMO. :: Dave Scobie :: M17 #375 - SWEET PEA - www.m17-375.webs.com :: still looking for a M6'8" needing some TLC & a good home :: Sage Marine - www.sagemarine.us --- On Wed, 3/23/11, Bowman, Jeremy <JeremyBowman@my.unt.edu> wrote:
Since I'm thinking I'll be mooring Griselda (M17) in Mission Bay (only about $650 a year or so), I've been looking at the M dinks. I found this one: http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/boa/2236276096.html
It seems a bit steep, even at $700 (which is what he'll take for it). I've seen a couple for sale for $500 and the guy on here just sold the M10 for $450.
What does everyone think?
