If she is to sail : at the MW's that may be a good : oportunity to get in touch with Pat : and see if he can work on it before : or after. The price all depends on : what you want with her.

If you have something in : mind, try me. : : I will also offer the hull and deck : mold for the ACME boats if anyone : wants to have a go with it. They : need resurfacing and reframing, but : it is a far cry from trying to start : from scratch. My efforts produced : more of a learning curve than a : successful product.
