I have the option to purchase this Marin Gestalt 2 for $800 CAD. Thoughts on it for a first gravel bike? Any other bike in that price range that would be be better?

If it is your size and it looks good to ride then go for it. You certainly aren’t going to find anything comparable new for that price point. Seems like a fair price to me, but hard to tell from one photo.
