Thank you. I originally was looking for a 20' being there were so many more made and easy to find locally (Miami). I purchased the hull and trailer for 1200. From there, I made every effort not to keep track for the duration of the build. I work in the marine industry so most everything purchased was at wholesale cost, including the Mercury. With that being said, about 17k less the labor myself and my 10yr old son (rightful owner) put in. Compared to what that would buy new (or even used) it's a steal. I'm not independently wealthy by any means, and tackled it by doing what I could when I could, both time wise and financially. Trust me, it's a rewarding experience, especially when you are complimented by both people who know what they're looking at and those that don't. Do it; take your time, enjoy the entire process and with that the end number won't bother you.
