Do you have an accurate as-built sectional view of the modification
available?

No, but I can try to explain in more details. The following link shows the
original design of the boat.

There are no brackets in my boat. The new keel looks very much like the old
keel. Instead of the brackets, four bolts are holding the keel. These bolts
go through the well and through the keel. Since the well the keel is placed
in is heavy built, the keel seems to be fastened well. However, because the
brackets are missing, and because of the bolts, I would like to have a water
tight conjunction at the buttom. The new keel is covered with fiberglass
which is also covering the area around the keel, but because of moment of
the keel this is not water teight. The problem is how to get this water
teight.

Hi,

I have a 22' sailboat with a new keel. The boat originaly had a swing
keel,
but a fixed keel is made and installed. The keel is fixed inside a well.
I
have a hard time making a non leaking connection between the hull and
the
keel. The keel is long and probably moving, making smal openings. How
should
it be connected to the hull? The keel is sorrounded with fiberglass but
the
connection to the hull is leaking. Should I made a smal gap between the
hull
and the keel so the fiberglass might flex some more? Should I use
something
like Sikaflex and made a layer outside the keel/hull connection? Any
suggestions? Thanks
