Ahoi everyone:
I have my Seidelmann 25 on a trailer at home. I'm basically refitting the whole boat. The other day I noticed some streaks of water seeping from the area where the keel is attached to the hull. We had some rain, and there was water in the bilge. I think I need to reseal the keel to the hull.
Has anyone done that before? My main concern is how to stabilize the keel on the trailer. If I remove the nuts from the keel bolts, and lift the boat off the keel, I'm afraid that I can't control the 2200 pounds of lead....
Any ideas are highly appreciated!!!!
