*Correction: In the podcast we state that to our knowledge the Hansa HC33's did not have the bronze rudder post access port. After doing more research we found that during 1984 the bronze port became an option on the Hansa boats as well. It should be said that it is correct that all Shin Fa HC33s do have this access port to our knowledge.*
