The way the pilot flies it's probably a good thing he's selling it.
Did you notice that the wing covering is apparently a tarp secured with Velcro?
If that works, why bother with all that tying, sewing, shrinking and doping?
With the removable tarp, it's easier to get the eels out, when it fills up.
Consider the amount of power he has available in that engine, and the speed
he's flying at. Weight is almost a non-issue. And since it disassembles
and stores indoors, 'durability' in the face of extended exposure to 'the
elements' is also only an 'incidental' consideration.
