You can also check the stringers where the drain holes are cut out back by the tramsom. Wellcraft decided not to seal the holes so the wood just gets wet and rots. On my old v20 I could stick my finger in the hole and found that there was no wood left in that area. I could actually push my finger into the hole and right through to the transom that was rotted. Before buying that boat at any price look around some more. You may be able to get one that doesn't need all that work at least right away.
