No, not too likely unless your purchase agreement included a right of return subject to conditions (unlikely) or the seller fraudulently induced you to buy by misrepresenting to you the real condition of the boat in wide variance of the truth.
Most of these kinds of sales are "AS IS" and without warranty or guarantee of any kind.
