Default Maxum 2900 SCR haul question

I’m looking at a 2001 Maxum 2900 SCR with the 7.4 MPI engine and bravo 3 out drive. Seems to be in good condition overall.
Current owner had the haul repaired for issues with it bubbling. It has been fixed and looks to be repaired properly. Has anyone had this happen or heard of this happening and is this something I should be worried about?

Welcome aboard!

I think you mean hull blisters. This was more common on older fiberglass boats but can happen with newer boats as well. I recommend having the boat surveyed so a moisture test can be performed. He will also sound the hull with a dead blow hammer listening for voids.

Caulk one up for the importance of an inspection/ survey.
