Default should he restore this boat

it is a early model skeeter sf175. last on water around 1989. just pulled it out of the woods literally. It was inherited from his father. His father was the only owner. It has a Johnson seahorse 150 v6. The problem is it sat so long that it had a tree growing in the front floor drain so he got that out and we started working on it tonight. Boat will have to be rewired front to back. The biggest problem is the main support beams under the floor are rotten. I think the are called the stringers?? Where he had to cut the floor to get the tree out of it you can see they are rotted thru in the front and the boat has had water standing in it probably for 20 years. Don't even know if the engine will run. I told him first we should do some research on what or if those main supports in the boat could be fixed and would it be reasonable. Any input will be greatly appreciated since i know there are a couple guys here who have restored a couple of boats. Thanks
