Default Botched up the keel

Here is pic of the two places I would have to unbolt and let fall to the
ground to install the keel guard.

I have the many rollers towards the back and the one roller at the top along
with the winch and chain. Hopefully that will keep the front on my boat
from falling to the ground?!? As it currently is, if I take off the winch
cable the boat doesnt move. I can even push on it and it doesnt move.

By slow pace I mean barely moving where you could just put a foot down off
the boat and it would have stopped. This is how I have been pulling up to
the dock to let the woman off to go get the jeep. Seems to save alot of
time versus pulling up to the side of the dock, roping it off, back end
swinging out cause im not fast enough, having to pull all around and do it
again till I get it roped at the dock. Im not the best docker :-)

With the guard I could just pull up to the ramp and let it bump the ramp
then get out.

Yeah Im not too sure its supposed to go up that high either but I got to
fill in that gouge with something! And then that sure would nicely cover

it
up.

I can take winch cable off and the boat doesnt move. I think I can take

out
the second roller and it will still have the top one to rest on. There is
another roller type device down lower too that would have to be moved.
