    I'm just wondering how long do lakeboats (Burke/sheelin) etc generally last. I guess it greatly depends on how they are looked after like everything else. Mine is a Burke 15 years old. Anyone got a really old one in good shape. I'd hope to get another 10 out of mine.

    Good few still going after 30 years.
    Depends on whether they are kept in a boat shed or the open.
    Hulls last indefinitely unless they suffer impact damage.
    Replace timber work and they are good for a new lease of life.
