Comments

The hull was painted white in 2009. The bow has been reinforced with Dyneema for added strength and durability. It also boasts a fixed dog-house, equipped with opening windows and lighting, installed in 2009. The boat underwent its last service docking in July 2024, during which a full service was completed. This included the application of three layers of antifouling with International Micron99, and the replacement of anodes, ensuring the vessel is in excellent condition.
