1. Efficient, reliable twin Perkins with simple, reliable easy-to-work-on old school boat systems in an ER that makes for great access to most systems.
2. Appropriately sized for single-handing and our cruising and fishing trips in the SF Bay/CA Delta. Side salon door, double aft salon doors and wide side decks make it easy to move about when single-handing.
3. Two helms. The flybridge provides cool breeze and great views over river levees. The lower helm provides foul weather, sun and wind protectiion.
Dislikes:
1. Accommodations: Would prefer an island bed with a larger stateroom. (Hate the morning 'climb over')
2. Maintenance: Too much exterior wood for ease of maintenance (but I like the look)
3. Access: Would prefer better access to flybridge via steps (vs ladder) and a transom door for better access to cockpit.
