Boat (2883-1) is a very old and rare LEGO set. It has not been available online or in retail stores in good/new condition for over 2 years. Because of its scarcity, the current estimated value of in new condition of $21.14 may be much lower than its true market value. Released in 1997, sealed sets in good condition are especially difficult to find, often commanding a premium well above estimates.
There are currently no new/sealed listings available for Boat at this time.

“Overall its a nice little boat but very plain and simple. Not really in the same league as the 1990/91 releases. A 5/10 or Average from me. A nice addition to a town or beach collector or if you like to race this one is number 3 or just a good one to have as a spare for when... More another boat breaks down.”
