In the spring of 2007, she was taken out of the water at Ramsgate, and underwent a full exteriour and hull repaint and checkover. A survey was carried out at the time on the hull by CET Medway - the summary of the report said:
There were no areas of weakness, and the minimum reading was 6.9mm. Which seems quite acceptable.
