Structural or complex improvements recently ive ground the bottom of the drain holes at the bottom of the hatch where the bottom hatch board goes..the bottom of the smallest board was always wet because the track was holding water..so i dremeled the slots to be flush...they drain nice & i dont have a wet hatch board anymore  
The boat's best features nice n beamy..ease of sailing..almost flat deck  
Problem areas in terms of design, materials, maintenance, etc. fixed windows..leaky sliding hatch  
Sailing characterisitcs winds less than 10 knots...i spank everybody!

Liveability very nice w/ marine air..refrig..water heater..aft stateroom
