Lookin good Scout!

Hey, have you tried to motor with the RK all the way up? Is your
steering control OK?

Frank

Thanks Frank!
Yes, I have motored with the RK fully retracted. It responds much better
with the keel down even just a few inches (which is what Nick Hake told me
to expect). I often leave my slip with the keel mostly retracted even
though my slip depth is 23 feet. I haven't had too much trouble with tight
maneuvering.
I have to tell you we really like this boat but would like the 6'5" head
room of the 32RK; we are already considering putting the 26 up for sale and
going for it.
