Hello, new to this group and forum.
Can someone chime in and give some general advice on the value of this boat? Are these boats desirable if restored because she is a sister boat to the famous "Tinkerbelle"?
I am looking into buying a Whitecap that likely fits into the category of:
Useable as is more or less:
The 2nd owner says:
Well Loved Classic 1952 Old Town Whitecap 13.5' Cedar on Ash lapped strake sail boat. Good mast, good spars, newer transom newer decking and newer coaming, all brass hardware, needs paint. Original sails in OK condition. Meticulously maintained, stored winterized last two seasons.
I have not seen the boat yet. I will check for any records, markings and take pictures if I move forward.
Found this post but could not reply directly (maybe because i just signed up today)
