Pricing rare, old and restored boats isn’t easy because there are few comps. You can start with the Hagerty Guide but understand that a number of factors are at play including history, rarity, styling and condition. In other words ask a few questions. What is the history of the boat? Was it owned by a movie star or statesman and is there documentation of this? Is this a collectible rarity or a one-design of which many were built? Is there elaborate high-end detailed styling or was this a workboat in its time? How was it used and maintained since it was launched? Remember that evaluation of the condition will range from Fair to Bristol, with three levels in between. Also, was there a restoration and what was the quality and authenticity of that work? here

Any boat purchase should involve a qualified surveyor but a classic boat may need a specialized individual and those are hard to find. If restored to a specific period, the hardware and systems on a classic boat will be vintage and must be checked for proper functionality. A qualified restorer should also be able to evaluate work already done or advise on the cost of future projects. here

What’s the maintenance budget like for a classic sailboat with lots of wood to paint and varnish, plus spars, rigging, auxiliary engine, and complex systems belowdecks? If you have to ask, you can’t afford it. Photo Credit: Doug Logan.

We usually think of classics as wooden boats but they can be fiberglass. Whether you’re considering a 1940s mahogany Chris-Craft launch or fiberglass Lido 14 sailboat from the 1970s, an old boat can bring much joy. Buying a classic boat is and isn’t like purchasing a modern boat. There are things to learn, look for and consider when dealing with vintage vessels.
