I have a 33-2 KCB, and the big difference is the area under the mast is solid due to the different keel.
I was fortunate and had Rob MacLachlan do my pendant when it needed, a bit finicky, but a less than an hour in the slings. We had to feed the new one as the old broke when a friend opened the clutch and allowed the board to free fall. Rob is at South Shore and very knowledgeable....

I’ve read the posts on the 33-2, but have a question about the well-known mast step problems. Some posts seem to indicate that the K/CB models don’t have the problem at all, but they don’t tell why. Can anyone elaborate? Also, I‘m wondering how difficult it is to service and maintain the centerboard and its cable. On my current Bristol 30 K/CB, it can be tricky. Thanks in advance for the help.
