Vintage boat with vintage trailer – one owner

[devonna-a]

Hello All,
I am seeking information on the value of a boat and trailer my husband and I came across in a barn sale. It is a one-owner 1960 Smoker Craft aluminum boat, 14 ft. in length, on a vintage TeeNee trailer. The boat and trailer are in beautiful shape and we thought it should belong to someone who owns/is interested in vintage motors. I contacted one of your members and he suggested I write here and ask if anyone has any idea what the pair would be worth. We aren’t expecting to make a fortune or anything like that, but we would like to get a fair price based on the value. I tried to attach a photo, with no success. I appreciate any help anyone could give us!

Thank you.

I’m not sure what it is worth in your market. Hopefully a member close to you will respond.
The TeeNee trailer is desirable, especially in nice condition. In my area of western Canada In about 8 years of looking on Crags I have seen one $200.00 (Canadian) TeeNee for sale and it was thrashed. It sold quickly. An average bare bones 14 footer tin boat ask between $700 and $1200. Of course condition is everything.
A method for determining value is to check your local Craigslist for a range of asking prices , but this would take some time to get a good sampling.
