It is virtually brand new, which is why no electronic doo-dads and no photo (it looks just like any other new C-Dory 16 Cruiser with green trim), but I never use it.
You should be able to make the boat fit into your boating style. If it is not meeting your expectations, post the problem and you should get many different ideas on how to make it work.
I am happy you have decided to give the boat another chance.
