There is a difference between "improvements" which bring the boat back to good condition and are really maintenance, and novel additions, such as adding thrusters, that were not previously fitted.
Even recouping part of the cost of the "novel additions" might be difficult. But expenditure of both kinds should make the boat more readily saleable.
The seller sounds to be doing well,no need for a broker.
I suggest valuing the boat as it is, regardless of seller expenditure. It is what it is, and if that carries it above more commonly priced boats,it may well be good value for money. Buying quality, even if it costs a little more, can be worthwhile.
