We love her. She's great in heavy winds and seas. I can race her comfortably when the lighter boats are getting beat to death. She is not race grade in winds under six knots, however. I've added larger winches in the cockpit and moved the original cockpit winches to the cabin top. I've added a track and rings to the mast for spinnaker (symetrical). I've added an extra spinnaker pully to the top of the mast (two now), and one pully under the sheaves for the flasher. This allows the flasher to be jibed through the fore triangle. I replace all the through hulls. I replaced the original 12HP engine with a new 20HP engine. I've added a racing 155 genoa, and will add a racing mainsail this winter. I replaced the original head. This winter I will replace the CB with a steel one (the fiberglass one snapped off).
