Replacing exterior board with alternative

Hey Guys,

What are your suggestions on this exterior shown in the photos. The distance round the house its in very bad shape with holes and gaps. Just want to make the best return for my money on this reno (as we all do).

My current plan is to remove if possible and put up blue board and render but I'm still waiting for quotes to come back for that. I have become inpatient and turned to hear from other property owners.

The property exterior is 56m right the way around and there are around 18m of windows and doors around the property,

I have attached a photo of a hole and one of the sheeting itself.

I would love to hear all suggestions!!!

For what it's worth, blue board and render was recommended to me too - for a sleep out type room that has water damage.
My impression is that it's cheap and easy to put up.
What's blue board like without render?
 
I would just cut out the section that has busted holes in it and replace with a piece of blueboard, then I would use acrylic render as Scott has mentioned to cover the whole house.
