How would you determine the value of a Dan Kidney-built duck boat?

Without seeing it a specific fair value can not be determined. Is it all original or has it been fiberglassed? What particular model is it? What is the degree of rot or damage? Everybody thinks these Kidney duck skiffs are worth a fortune but only the most original & best condition skiffs are worth much at all. There are simply more out there than most people realize. A top condition skiff can be bought for several hundred dollars to well over a thousand depending on how badly/quickly you want one...in this 2010 economy these old duck boats are hard to sell period. I have heard one person tell the story that his Kidney skiff was appraised at $7,000...appraised by who I don't know...my guess is that there is one too many zeros on that figure. I have sold several solid original but not perfect Kidney skiffs and never got more than $750. I would perhaps pay $1,500 for a perfect original unrestored example or $50 for a "project" boat.

A man standing in a boat fires horizontally would the boat move in the direction of fire or none?
Newton's Third Law: For every force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. The boat (and man) would receive an impulse force opposite to the direction of firing. The boat would move opposite to the direction of firing. To determine how much, you would need to consider the relative masses of the boat/man vs the bullet, and include the duration of the impulse. (The boat would probably not move far, but it would move.)

Agreed or Actual Boat Insurance?
It has been said that the happiest days in a boat owner's life are the day they purchase the boat and the day they sell the boat. Owning a boat can be fun, but it can also be a headache. Choosing the right insurance policy for your boat doesn't have to be. One important tip is to know whether your boat insurance will pay you the agreed value or the actual value. The agreed value policy will give you a set amount of money in case of a complete loss of the craft. Normally the agreed value is the purchase price of the boat. Actual value policies will normally give you the book value of the craft at the time of the loss.
