First Grady - Which Model Would Work Best For Us?

I think I have it narrowed down to two now. The overnighter as besides the hull crack I showed it’s in a lot better shape than most I’ve seen and was barn stored. It is inboard but that doesn’t scare me away I don’t think.
The other is a 93 seafarer 228g which I assume has the seaV2 body shape for that year. Has a 97’ Yamaha 250 OX66 (like the one I had mentioned in a few messages above) outboard and isn’t in as great of shape but mainly cosmetics. Solid boat.

They about 3k price difference though. So I’m trying to decide if it’s worth the extra money to get the seaV2x an outboard, the 228g layout with the 97’ outboard or the overnighter that’s in good shape with the unknown hour inboard and original hull shape.
 
I wouldn’t move forward on the Overnighter without a survey. Impact damage and cracks below the waterline.
 
I'd again consider something that’s slightly more expensive, newer and maybe nicer or needs less work? Did you see this GW 226 Seafarer on Facebook marketplace? 1999 with a hardtop, 4 stroke outboard and trailer for $13k.
