Default Things I Don't Like....

As Mooron asked and in the end I'm ALWAYS Honest, here are the things I
don't like about the Beneteau First 35s5....

On Deck:
Don't like the teak slats in cockpit
Large wheel is a few inches too far aft
Primary winches are not an easy reach for singlehanding
Engine controls not on pedestal...might make sense in practice though.
SS step down to swim platform a bit shallow.


Below Deck:
Nav station stool...don't like it
Sliding storage doors.
A few drawers are of the finger snapping variety
V-Bierth filler piece actually blocks door...hilarious mistake!
Aft cabin lighting is weak
Fridge is a bit small
Propane system...must be coverted to safer setup.
While recently refit, aft cabin fabric liner is destined to fail again.
Retractable blinds color is "odd"
