The factory copper paint below the waterline is 'excellent.' The lifeboats, bowsprit and lower masts (6 parts) and rudder halves have been neatly assembled and painted with one coat of paint. Assembly is 'very good' and paint is also. The cargo holds were correctly painted and glued to the deck undersides; all this work is 'excellent.' There is no other assembly.

The only broken part is the dolphin striker, which broke cleanly at the base and is easily fixed. Some sails have the traditional damage.
