OT but can anyone help me value my Scull?
(more photos in link).
Boat is a 2003, 70kg Stampfli. I'd say very light use given it's age.
History is that I bought it from one of the GBu23Lwt squad at Leander in 2005 - it was in good condition.
From 2005-2008 I used it semi-regularly with vain aspirations of success, but I struggled to kick glandular fever and my water sessions were pretty limited to weekends so use was always slightly sporadic. Most use was at Strathclyde Park so no big boats or river banks to crash into. During this time it was always racked indoors at EUBC.
In 2008 (I think) any little dings were refirbed by the reputable dude at Radley College Boathouse (Ralph??) and the boat has since been racked both indoors and out, but always in it's weather proof boat bag. Since I got into Tri the boat has had almost no use with only a couple of summer paddles a year.
My main worry with the value is the ding in the canvas (photo 8 in the flickr link) and I don't know what condition the other comparable boats online are in.
