Rough Shape like it needs some cosmetic work or worse than that? I would imagine if you could paint it and put an interior in, it could be an awesome boat again. I personally hate the paint but man that is a lot of boat for the money.

Curious, Was the 51 an updated 47 with a bustle, or an all new design?

Same hull yes. They added the integrated swim platform and the v birth was closed off with its own sink and entertainment system ( tv)
