Gadfly, there is a group in Victoria called S.A.L.T.S. (Sail and Life Training Society) that takes donated sailboats. They either fix them up and sell them or sell them "as is" to a broker. They're a registered charity so you can get a tax receipt for whatever the assessed value of the boat is ... I think they will have a surveyor look at it. Also, I'm not sure why you think the wobble is unfixable, though. There was a great article in Pacific Yachting a couple of years ago about a guy in BC who totally refitted a San Juan 24 and I think he fixed a keel problem during the process.
