If you are buying used, you want to find an anal owner who has found his next boat. I lucked out after looking at more than thirty hulls. Guy already had a 24'Regulator on the way. Got his '93 GradyWhite 20' center console with '93 Yami 200hp. (only 240hrs on it) It was a creampuff. Again, he was anal about everything to do with the boat. Surveyor said if I didn't buy it, he would...... Only things I have done is take the striping off, strip bottom paint, put on barrier coat and ablative paint, and change delron thru hulls to SS. I still am considering adding a T-top, but it is the right one for my striper fishing and a couple runs a year to Stellwagen for tuna.
