Better to say "Why not".  What's the story?    Certainly worse ways to spend a day.

Yeah, why not lol
I dont understand what someone did to the interior of this thing. They cut the gunnel/side storage pockets and built some kind of "tray" on both side. Too far back to be front seat related. Its too bad because it screws up that upholstery. I think you can see that in the pics the PO posted.
I do still have my 115 and am thinking about keeping for this one.
Someone did some work on the floor but it looks half azzz. I need to wait until it thaws out to assess it. The transom is likely bad. Cracks in the gel on the outside. It will likely get split in half.
What I noticed when I saw it is that at least the upholstery that is there is in good shape and the windshield frame wasn't all bent. There is a crack in the screen.
I've always like GT160's and I think the windshield is worth twice what I paid for it.  The timing was right too because I had been working on this trailer and it was empty.
I am anxious to move on to one of my other boats but that dang crack in the hull of the 23 needs to be repaired first.
Gregg I did see that CVX16 but I really have no interest in one of those. I had one and gave it away. There's just too many of them for one thing.
