Capability is scored for both standards from the same design research, re-weighted. The money is not: a coastal refit has to be costed on its own, which is why it can read “not analysed” above while the score beside it is real.
Assistant's read — an opinion, not a source
- A well-found Alameda centre-cockpit cruiser with windlass, chain and useful gear aboard.
- Two earlier passes over-charged it; the costs now reflect what is evidenced rather than what age implies.
- The plastic-coated lifelines are a real finding — World Sailing requires uncoated stainless.
- Price is not the obstacle: at 5.50 it is beaten on capability by cheaper boats, and stays dominated whatever the refit costs.
Costed to cross the Pacific.

offer + full refit
Worst case, every line landing in full: $103,915. Planning figure is the likely cost above; this is the tail, not the expectation.
Resale
The gross figure flatters: Australian duty and GST fall due on sale, and brokerage is charged on the sale price.

Where to open
Asking price less $37,182 — the negotiable share of $31,700 in disclosed and suspected defects plus $30,270 of weighted risk. Offshore upgrades are excluded on purpose: a watermaker and a liferaft are your ambition, not the seller's problem, and the next buyer wanting a Bay daysailer would pay near the ask.

Schedule
A boat that cannot be ready is not cheaper, it is a year late.
How much of this is actually known
A boat priced from guesses is a different risk from one priced from quotes, at the same total.
