Personally I think very few grp cruisers are beyond recovery, the boat just has to find someone keen to work to get a good, cheap boat - and at least the costs of any bits required can be spread over time as suits.
The snag is finding people willing or indeed able to put some work in, which is why kit boats are largely a thing of the past, people would rather go into mega-debt than get their hands dirty.
However the few old grp cruisers at my club have all found good homes; the problem seems to be sailing dinghies, even good valuable ones being simply abandoned - but they should be simple to restore by somebody with an eye for a bargain.
