I'm looking at an Irwin Citation 35.5 project boat. Major concerns, p.o. whacked a rock hard off the keel. Keel to hull is cracked fore and aft and rear of keel appears to be pushed into hull about 1"-2", not broken completely thru (cabin holds water!), but water is leaking out around rear of keel. Interior is trashed.
Also, stand poppets have compressed into hull from? yrs on the hard.
Is this worth getting into? (impossible question, I know. Just would like thoughts).
Any thoughts on the Irwin Citation 35.5 in general and hull strenght and keel attachment in particular?
Thanks,
Vic H.
