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 Haakon |
