Stress crack on gunnel

I'm shopping for a used boat and have found a good deal on one ... problem is the seller (who is 1,000 miles away) says that there is "a small stress crack on the gunnel we'll above the water line. It's on the gas cap from the service tech over tightening a screw."

 

How big of a problem is this?

 

Fortunately, the guy is close to @jody_seal so I'd pay Jody to take a look at it for me, if he does that kind of work. But is the crack big enough of an issue that I should just save my time and money and keep looking?

If it really is from over tightening a screw on the gas cap holder, it is only cosmetic and is an easy fix.

 

Have it checked out, and decide if the cost of repair is worth it in light of the deal you can negotiate.
