Lee, I have the same boat and i would say this is right at the fiberglass keel stub / lead keel junction. This is about where i have install a drain for my bilge when on the hard.... ;) so right at the bottom of the bilge. You can probably confirm this by tapping with a hammer (the lead does not sound like the stub) It looks like your boat had a fiberglass tape to cover the keel join and that it has now cracked due to load and flex. I would not worry, just grind the area, let it drain and dry and redo part of the laminate with fiberglass and époxy. That's part of the maintenance overtime for this boat. It may be a godd time to retork the keel bolts to spec too. But know that there is one under the mast. You will love the boat, stiff and fast! Good luck.

The location looks to be lower than the normal Smile crack that develops.Looking for recommendations on how to repair.There is no delamination, but I do detect some moisture around the crack. _______________________________________________ Email address: CnC-List@cnc-list.com To change your list preferences, including unsubscribing -- go to the bottom of page at: http://cnc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/cnc-list_cnc-list.com
