When you get your Marine Trader 44 on the travel lift scale and she
reads 49,000 lbs, its time to reconsider being a nautical pack-rat.
About 2 boats ago I bought a Read's sail-making sewing machine for my
Morgan OI/51 having great plans to make a Bimini and do a lot of canvas
work myself. It was just over $800 and had all the bells and whistles.
You guessed it, it's had about 2 hours of use and I've been carrying it
around for the last 10 years. The darn thing weighs about 70 pounds and
has an oak case with a detachable top.
My question is does anyone know what these things are worth? I'd like a
ball park estimate before I take it into a marine consignment shop.
Please reply off list?
Regards....
