I finally got to go checkout the $100 sunfish to see if it was worth picking up. The boat is a pre 1972 model based on the rudder but I don't know the specific year. The trailer is also in fairly good condition and will clean up nice with a grinder and a new coat of paint. There are a couple things I am hesitant about:
- The paint is pealing all over this thing. It looks like someone painted it with something they shouldn't have and I am not sure how much it would cost to redue the paint the correct way.
- It is for sure very waterloged. I would say it weights well over 200 lbs. Seems like I will need to split the haul and replace the foam.
- There is a hole in the bottom. The entire weight of the boat looks like it was sitting on one of the trailer rollers. This caused that part of the haul to bow in quite a bit (see pictures) and eventually give way. I have no idea how long it sat like this. I do not know the extent of the damage or how bad it could really be.
