The hull is solid fibreglass, the deck is balsa-core and the cabin sides are plywood core. (At least on mine) I didn't do the rigging, it seems okay generally. My fuel tank is fibreglass so it might have been added later (or maybe yours was).

Where is the boat (and where are you)?

Are you doing the work yourselves? It's an absolutely amazing learning experience, but can be frustrating and tiring. Although having someone else do it would probably not make sense finacially if there's much to do. Mine was in drydock for more like 9 months, but I have a (flexible) day job to maintain too...

I expect that it's being offered at a pretty good price? These boats are only worth about $30k once they're back in good condition...
