Default Need Quick Help And Info

Alright guys new territory for me here. I just found a Ranger 362V-dc w/ a Mercury 150XR4. If I read the plate correct on the back of the boat it's a 1990. The hull looks and feels solid, the deck also appears pretty solid, I walked around on it and didn't feel any soft spots. One or two deck hatches have the screws pulled out. The boat definately needs some new carpet and the top part of the boat either needs cleaned and waxed or the gelcoat has worn off. No obvious cracks or holes. Looked in to the stringers in the back, everything looks good, transom feels solid. The Merc looks faded, but no obvious leaks or cracks, prop is 3 blade stainless,used but straight. The guys asking $2,600. for it. Opened all the hatches, no obvious rot or rust, dirty but didn't appear cracked or holding water. Trailer is ranger trailer single axle, small rust spots-surface. All in all the whole set up appears decent. Im no expert at what to look for on glass boats, especially boats 18 years old. Any specific things I need to look at? Certain areas of Ranger boats that have common problems? As always the input from you guys and gals is taken seriously. Just don't want to jump into a 2600 mistake.
