As a general rule if the listing says "Project boat", that is code for "barely afloat". With boats, as a rule, it seems like you get what you pay for. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to run away fast enough!
Having said that, if the hull & deck is basically sound (i.e. no or little osmosis, and the engine is not scrap metal, then you could have yourself an interesting project.
Get a surveyor who knows his (or her) stuff to do a thorough inspection. That inspection should be conducted with the boat out of the water. If the hull is sound, then everything else can pretty much be fixed/ meded/ replaced with time and/or money (probably plenty of both).
Good luck anyway.
