[PSUBS-MAILIST] Question

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Scott,
That is a hard question to answer, I am sure many have struggled with it.
What can you compare it too, a muscle car?  You can buy beautifully restored muscle cars for a fraction of the cost to build one.  PSUB's  also, are a labour of love, a toy, no different than a boat or a car.  
All you can do is look at recent sales.  Lake Diver, a well proven sub did not sell for the asking price and was for sale for a long time. I think he was asking 45K.  I have no idea what the status is on it now.  A K350 sold at auction for under 20K If I recall.  I have my own  formula, for a base price,  10 dollars per foot of dive capability.  I think that number is about right, for a functioning non certified  PSUB.  I know some PSUB owners are saying "I would never sell for that"  but I think that is the reality.  Only the chosen few make money on a toy :-)

I know the price of a sub can vary greatly. I am just curious what does a turn key K-350 and K-250 sell for?
Thanks,
