I feel your pain dedwards http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?394380-My-keel-fell-off-any-advice-welcome&highlight=keel+fell Ours went for a walk too. I have had a diver down and although the boat hadn't been moved since the keel up haul snapped he found nothing, we have surmised it fell...

Yea that will be the way forward a template, I was hoping I might find someone that has one that I can make a template from, even if I have to pay for a lift and hull clean Scott

Thanks for the advice Bitbaltic, I am not adverse to having one fabricated I had a rudder made about a year and a half ago. The problem I may have is calculating the dimensions. I have one picture of it half out but that is about it. The class association is a bit in active, I am a member and...

I recon I could look angry. What is magnetometer? It is a big lake about 10 miles long, and I think a mile at its widest or 14.73 Km 2, at it's deepest it is 219ft or 66.7m. Might need a submarine :)

Hopefully they still exist, better get practicing my French

Thanks they are both good ideas Not sure on the mass but the water is fairly shallow may be 8 meters or less, I can see the bottom in the summer. I also think it is likely to be mainly slate rocks on the lake bed Scott

I hope that is the case, I know it was very heavy, it had to be winched up each time Scott

I am looking for any advice or photos with regards to a Gib'Sea 76 swinging keel. My one has fallen off, yes gone? The uphaul rope snapped over the winter period and it has taken until now for the local boatyard to lift her for repair, on lifting they discovered that the swinging part of the...
