The underwater parts were sanded and repainted in 2009. The keel maneuvers easily using an electric winch (WARN U2500) with no lateral play, the blocks were replaced in 2010. The topsides are in overall good condition. The boat was equipped in 2005 with a new rudder under a fixed skirt. The rudder lifts backward in case of an impact and is operated by a crank.
