The Proboat one? Yes, but there's a lot to do. Nothing you can't fix with a Dremel tool to remove and 5 minute epoxy to add. It's not a roomy situation.

The MRP one? Yes, but you would do well to line the inside of the corners with glass (interior, using thin CA). That's where the hull fatigues.

YES, definitely. But why not just get an Elam? You can use the Elam drive train stuff to make the conversion a little easier.
