Need help: how to determine price & sell ''''77 Albin Ballad

Folks,
I''m the owner of a 1977 Albin Ballad - it''s been in my family it''s whole life - but unfortunately it''s now a "project boat" (needs TLC, new sails, etc.) and it doesn''t make sense for us to keep it. It''s in the water in Austin, TX and I need to find it a new home.

How would you suggest
a) determining a reasonable value (whether to sell or donate to non-profit)
b) sell the boat?

Though I love it, in my experience it''s an obscure boat and may not be in as much demand.

Any suggestions welcome.


Thanks,
Steve

Hey Steve, you could donate the boat to me, I unfortunately seem to operate as a non profit most of the time. the ballads are great boats. If you decide on a price let meknow. Jim Lintereur Bakersfield VT
