I'm sure no one cares, but I find it fascinating. It's not often you get to find out what a kind of rough lighthouse is worth. What do think? Maybe another $100k for a nice, but imperfect restoration? $300k all in. That would get you a lot of land in the mountains with a nice cabin. I think I'd have to have the kind of money where this purchase was > 2 in fun land acquisitions.
I had $50k in mind, and it's hard to tell exactly what you'll spend til it's time to put money on the table, but I think $75k would have been my absolute cap. That would allow another $25k for repairs, with me doing the work, so $100k all in. Of course, I'd also need a skipjack to access my new lighthouse. I wonder what they sell for? There's only about 20 left going by a quick search. I bet they're expensive in seaworthy condition :^D
