Beamie...you make some good points.
I never really considered resale value...although I'm sure I could get more than the $3,500 I paid for the outboard.
Building my own boat is the only way I would/could ever own one.
It's definitely not something I would recommend to the average person. I have a long history of building stuff....including a home I built for my bride and I when we married at 21 years old.
I jokingly told my wife and kids I wanted a viking funeral....they didnt think it was funny! Seriously though I want it to stay in the family for as long as it lasts...and it will certainly outlast me.
Also..... I have learned every aspect of my boats mechanical systems....because I installed all of it.
