The rust on the trailer all appears to be on added aftermarket parts, like the expanded metal walkways and the tongue jack. The trailer itself looks fine. The boat looks well taken care of with no evidence of abuse or neglect, but only a close look will prove that. As for price, that’s up to you, but new,you’re looking at around 50k for what he’s offering. Added bonus , if you’re a retired senior the ferry ride is free for foot passengers Monday thru Thursday. The boat is only a few clicks from the ferry dock. Ask the seller to come pick you up or take a cab. Either way, if you want the boat it’s time to “start the car” ‘cause you ain’t the only one looking at it. At the end of the day, if you don’t buy it, you had a nice,cheap day trip on the water in big, beautiful B.C.
