Any Tinker dinghy fans in the US?

I sold my boat and all i have left is a the nearly new, 9 foot Tinker Tramp with sailing rig.

I know, if i'm selling something i need to be on the classified board, but I'm doing a little research on familiarity with this dinghy.

Most people would compare it to a Zodiak or Achilles and looking around ebay and craigslist it would be hard to get more than $400

Meanwhile, on the other side of the pond this boat might fetch four times that much.

So, does anyone in the mid Atlantic region have any appreciation for these things, apparently they're pretty hot stuff in the UK.
