Sandpiper Sailboats were built from 1972 to 1993. The resale price can depend on allot of items such as; 

 - Age of the boat (year made).
 - Overall condition of the boat (any damage, leaks, paint peeling).
 - Condition of the Hull (was it beached on rocks)?
 - Condition of the Keel (screws up/down easily and not damaged).
 - The quality and condition of the sails.
 - The number of sails (Main, Geona, Working Jib, Storm Jib, Spinnaker).
 - The hardware condition (lines, pulleys, anchor and anchor line).
 - The condition of the rudder and screw keel.
 - Has the Chemical Toilet been upgraded to a flush model?
 - Does it include a VHF Radio, AM/FM radio and a GPS locator?
 - Does it have night time lighting (bow, stern, mast, anchor, and cabin)?
 - What is the size and condition of the Battery?
 - Does it include a gas motor (5-9.h.p.) and external gas tank (2.5 - 5 gallons) and are both 100% functional?
 - Does it include a trailer and is it highway safe? (new tires, rollers, lights).

Most Sandpipers sell between the range of $3,000 to $8,000 (Canadian 2007) but the high demand for them keeps the value higher as they don't take long to resell. A former CL employee has informed us that back in 1973 a new Sandpiper with a trailer was selling for $2,100.00 and later in 1993 the last remaining Sandpipers were sold with a trailer at $12,500.00

Just as a reminder, when you sell/purchase your Sandpiper, do let us know so we can update our free For Sale / Wanted section and our Sandpiper Boat Registry.
To preserve for sale photos after a boat has been sold they are moved to the Photos Section under Miscellaneous photos.
How to place an ad, just send us an email with all of the details and photos.
Note: On Kijiji and Craigslist, although they are free to place your ad, you manually have to add them to each city. The downfall is that the one cannot do a "all cities" or " all province/state" wide searches. Takes time to search each city one by one.

For Sale: 1978 Sandpiper 

An awesome boat that I hate to sell, but we are moving to the west coast. If it wasn't such a pain to get it there, I wouldn't even think twice about it. It is 19ft hand laid fiberglass (positive buoyancy foam core) with a 300lb lead ballast keel that it fully retractable into the hull. You are able to beach the boat no problem. It has sleeping quarters for 4, a dropleaf teak table, brand new clarion cd/mp3/ipod stereo with speakers, new plexi-glass windows, ample storage under the cushions, a chemical head with pump out on foredeck and even a self draining anchor locker! 4 sails all original and in mint condition (Main, 2 jibs and a spinnaker with pole). All sheets are good. Nice mahogany rudder. Stainless bow pulpit. Self draining cockpit. California freshwater 1970 Johnson 6hp longshaft outboard will get you in and out of the docks. Boat also comes with original "little dude" trailer that has brand new lights, bunks, Carlisle radial tires with new rims and new bearings done by Joe's trailer. ( I actually prepped it thinking I was going to haul it out west but my wife shot that one down!) I assure you that no cost has been spared with this boat and I really hate to see it go! Also included is transfer of boat slip at Kensington Park that's good until 10/31/2010. $3,000.00 Email Michael or call 734-834-4837.
