Underneath
The hull has fine bows that cut very cleanly through the water. We find
that the stern sits a bit low, so that the transom is still just in the water,
causing a small amount of turbulence rather than a clean exit. Maybe we
just have too much stuff on board!
 | Going deeper, the keel is a fin with bulb. |
| The lead keel is respectable, but not a super smooth faired job. I
have it in mind to do a basic fairing at some time in the future (maybe
never?). |
|
The standard prop is a 2 bladed fixed affair, on a
conventional shaft and 'P' bracket. I understand later 333's have a
saildrive unit. |
|
The rudder is a spade, and has quite a light feel.
There is an emergency tiller that fits into the top of the rudder post. |
