It makes no sense to me to buy something this common with bulkheads hacked up UNLESS you feel you can do a good DIY repiar

The real RED flag on the older C27s is the plywood keel sump which can be repaired BUT may not have been and the other issue is a lot of these older boats have raw water cooled motors which is a big issue compared to a freshwater cooled motor (heat exchanger)

I walked away from a 1981 "bargin" C30 with the same issue becasue it had been ignored so long the keel bolts were junk and it had a raw water diesel

If a dirty bottom slows you down what do you think it does to your boat
