welcome, i have an 84, so not so sure of your boat , but the tank cover is usually about the size of the tank with smaller access ports to get to the hoses & fuel guage sending unit. most are screwed to the deck and bedded with silicone.
on the rear compartments. mine has 3/4 holes drilled through the stringer to allow any water to migrate to the lower part of the bilge. not a good idea because they did not seal these holes and the core of the stringer was exposed. i drilled mine larger and coated the wood with some epoxy. yours could be holding water because of a blocked passage. i'm sure somebody with a newer model will be along..

as far as price, who knows in this market, but a hull that is only 15 years old and motor that is only 5 years old seems like a good deal.
