Boat Review/Upgrades:
This was a fairly well maintained boat when I bought it. Not too many frills though. I've added Isotherm/Isotemp refrigeration and a new water heater. I have also added a "Starting Battery" in addition to the original batteries. No major problems to fix.

It does need a new cutlass bearing, and shaft seal. The mast step is rusted, which is to be expected. The rudder swing is limited to about 30 deg., and I'm hoping to be able to find the cause, and modify it so I can get at least a 45 to 50 deg. angle each side of center.

Any comments on that item will be much welcomed.

Makani Kai also has a pronounced list to port, which I have discovered is caused by the 800 pounds of lead that is glassed to the inside of the port hull, behind the settee! That will be coming out in a few weeks!
