Hello Joe: A friend of mine had this done to his Catalina 36 aboaut 5 years ago.........he needed a shallow draft for the Charlotte Harbor in Florida where he moved prior to this project.
He used the Brewer's yard in Marion, MA and while I didn't watch the process, the result has been very satisfactory........he's tough to beat in his class down there. I'd contact Brewer's and get their take on this modification. I do remember that he offered that it was more expensive than he had originally budgeted.......I suspect it came in around 8-10K. I might also look for a deeper mooring spot....... Good luck, Ron Casciato Impromptu C&C 38MKIIC....'77 Mass Bay -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Joseph Valle Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2012 4:47 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Cutting my keel I own a C&C 29' Mark II. I am contemplating cutting my keel about 14 inches to accommodate a shallow mooring spot. Mars Metal from Canada makes a keel bulb that will bolt to the remaining keel to make up for weight and righting moment. Has anyone had experience with this? Joseph R. Valle Chairman & C.E.O.

If you are sending me a photo: a) send it to s...@cncphotoalbum.com b) images should be high-res, jpeg format and not thumbnail size. I'll send them what I get.
