Default CSY / TXY built hulls (Sarasota Marine Corp)

Hi all, I am looking to make a move to a 23'cc and have shortlisted older SeaCrafts. Was wondering if anyone can tell me how these were constructed? All fiberglass stringer system? What are the problem areas to watch for on these boats? Thanks in advance and extremely helpful site. Thanks.

Almost forgot, were gas tanks fiberglass back then or aluminum? Thanks again.

The stringers are foam filled fiberglass boxes. They probably won't be a problem. Look for soft spots in the deck and cap, and flex in the transom. The original tanks were aluminum.
