We purchased this boat recently and have had her on the Slip at Lagoon Boat Club for the last 2 weeks.
Much scrubbing and emptying 34 years of junk into the dump master.
Sanding and epoxy filling nooks and crannies, repairing chain plates and re sealing staunchion bases and traveller mountings. For the last 2 weeks no water has flowed into the bilge. Probablly for the first time in 34 years.
Her hull is sound.
We have sleeved the old rudder shaft and re greased the entire system. 
The timber gunnales have been sanded and epoxy filled and oiled. They have lost the furry look and are starting to gleam as are the grab handles and tiller etc. There is a lot more work to do in our last week on the slip but she is starting to come back.
Good luck with your Endeavour projects.
