Yes, the whole re-design concept is bad. I am a restorer of "brass" (pre-1915) cars, so I have a bias towards the "restoration" process. Hendel's design was his absolute best effort.

Geerd Hendel must be spinning in his grave with the thought of that happening to his design. I don't know if you've ever seen an original photo of her when she was delivered; but she was amongst the most beautiful yachts on the Eastern Coast of the USA for many years.

It's all quite sad.
