What engine and drive? And yes, you should be concerned about its saltwater use. Cause 6-7 years is right about the time for the exhaust manifolds to be rusted away internally.

I'd definately have a pro check it out for me, consider anything the seller says to be suspect til proven otherwise.
All the stuff they talk about has nothing to do with the integrity of the boat.
I'd want the transom, stringers, wiring , engine, outdrive etc all checked.
Deduct the price of the survey.
