The top variety corrected a weak band running across the unit resulting in the rigging on the sails being weak and missing. The extensive recutting to correct this so weakened the plate that a crystalline fracture (shown on the bottom stamp) subsequently developed, which zig-zags across the main-mast and sails for 4.5mm.
