Hi Peter, Thank you for the tip on Craigslist. I've had nothing but success selling on there, but still don't know what price to sell it for. As far as shrink wrapping, that is something that must be changed each year; you pay a set amount per foot, depending on location. Here, on the north shore of Long Island, I've seen prices ranging from $12 - $18 per foot but shrink wrap is disposable and I've never heard of being able to use it again.
One of the reasons I'm reluctant to sell is that the canvas cover can be used over and over; I'm just not sure how I would tie it under the boat while I'm in the water.
