Are chris crafts of the 90s as well built as the name implies?

[Broater]

Hi all. I recently bought a 96 chris craft concept 21 br. I can't seem to get a solid bead on how well these boats were made in that era. Any expertise/knowledge of the quality during this time vs years past? Were they cutting corners? Is there wood in the design or all glass? Thanks.

We have a 17' Concept in/out with Volvo Penta 4.3GL.

I've been trying to find out for sure if the entire hull is fiberglass. The brochure says all Fiberglass and doesn't specifically say Fiberglass encased stringers like it does for its larger boats on the brochure. I'm hoping that means the transom and stringers were all built of glass and no wood. When my dad purchased the boat new in 97, thats what sold him on it, the saleman told him it was an all fiberglass hull. He had already spent money on a transom repair for an old Wellcraft Airslot and didn't want to have to do that again.
