What do you mean the transom wood isn't structural?

According to the manufacturer, the strength of the transom is in the unique geometry. The wood that is sandwiched in there is in several pieces - 4 if I remember correctly, and mainly serves as something to screw in to for mounting stuff.

Now you're talking. I remember seeing that boat cruising around when I was a kid. Beautiful vessel!

I had the identical boat unreal ride very sad about the “had“ part. Look in the states you can pick up the same boat for around 6-10,000

23 degree deadrise, you would need big power all the time to keep this on plane. The compromise of deadrise vs efficiency will be evident on this hull. Huge dance floor though once you took out the engine boxes.

Wrong boat to dump that much electronics into. Though I think he said he’s considered moving the gear into the next boat.

Fundamentally, if you find an Arima with reliable power, you can hardly go wrong. Even a cosmetically rough hull will be pretty much bullet proof. This seller claims that there is no wood - this is not true - that year has wood in the transom, however, it is not much of a worry as it is not structural.
Asking price of this particular boat seems a bit high to me.

I'm not familiar with boat construction.. what makes a certain hull bullet proof vs others?
