What is the value of a mold?

With the low price and ample supply of blasters today I would say the molds would not sell for more than $1000. Likely less, since there are a lot of guys out there (and here on X) that are capable of making their own molds for less money. For the right person it would be a nice project, but demand for A/M blaster hulls is low.
 
Yo

Are other molds worth more or less? Depending on demand? it seems like a pretty easy deal to make molds these days...

$20 bucks...i will take it!

Yes, some molds may be worth more depending on availability of the hull they make. A kaw X-2 800 mold would be worth far more than a seadoo XP mold, since X-2 800's are very hard to get here, and thus more difficult to make a mold. I've had molds for Seadoo race boats (worlds finals winners) that we threw in the dumpster because they were no longer desirable.
 
I would say the blaster would be worth anywhere from $800-$1200. I do agree that if you have a light weight x2 or a new 800 x2 they would be worth a little more. I would say around the $2000 to $2500 range

A mold is only worth something to someone that is going to spend the time/effort to build some hulls, and if someone has the skill/time/money to build hulls, then they could also build a mold I'd think.

I'm sure the molds are worth something, but they are also something that can be built again for a few hundred dollars and time.

Something else, part of the reason Blasters are so great in the surf is the hull design---the v hull/setback pump designs were for racing to compete with the HX, which is not so great in surf. The flatter hull design launches off waves instead of plowing through them.

why not just give the molds to someone that will make some OR you build some. I for one would be intrested in CF blaster for a fair price.

offer the bed plates for 62t,66E. 1100s and seapoo 951's. get ride of the V and you just about good to go.

my 2 cents!

This is a mold I built. Although mark would like to stake his claim in almost everything and has done better than most mortal beings, I can assure you this is not his mold and can be vouched for by numerous people who know me.

Also, I have a blaster of this type: Carbon fiber upper deck and hood, fiber/Carbon bottom deck, UMI steering up for sale hull only. I had all the guts stolen and sold off by said mark character so they are unavailable.
