Drag's got most of my tests down already...if has a motor and will tilt up, apply your body weight to the foot and listen...noisy crackling or silence...guess which is a bad thing...walk ALL OVER all decks including the foredeck ahead of the windshield...I like Drags idea of backing out a couple of screws in the transom..watch for tea-colored water escaping...pull all floor hatches, visually inspect w/a flashlight...try to get to the stringers and jamb them w/a screwdriver...if you punch thru, then problems...feels hard...good thing...get UNDER the hull...look at the keel front to back...good luck and let us now what you do...
If it passes all my and Drag's test, WET TEST it if you can...
