Ok the deck is probably plywood with fiberglass on top of it... I would say it has stringers holding the deck off the hull and flotation foam between the stringers...

If you want to know the conditions under the deck you will have to take some core samples of the deck,foam and transom.
Near the back of the deck find a place thats near the center and take a hole saw 2-2 1/2" and drill into the deck just through the plywood..... make sure your in a deep part on the hull not near the sides....you don't want to drill the hull! should be foam in there....

Take a piece of pipe and twist it into the foam and pull out a core... check it for water....after that we can go to checking the transom...

Ok-now I get it-thanks for the clarification. And to answer Seadog's question they are looking for the title-they know they have it, but they just need to figure out where they put it ;) I did tell them that I can't take it without the title and they understood. Basically they were planning on hacking it up and taking it piece by piece to the town dump if I didn't take it. If this thing is salvageable that would have been a damn shame!
