Notes:
We would advise to change one of the foot-pads and rubber rings of deck Henderson hatches

Shortcomings:
A small hole on the side that should be filled
A clamp on the top of aft cabin has been torn out hence a small hole to be filled
A small crack near the oar-lock, should be filled.
All these are minor defects and can be fixed by yourself.

The greatest advantage is that boat is already in Australia and you are saving substantial money on shipping !
