Hi guys n gals... has anyone replaced the keel hanger bolts on a very pre-85 swing keel model before?
Reason I ask is because I recently removed the old ones on my early 70's model C22 and was surprised to see the bolt holes drilled at an angle through the hull next to the keel slot and then "bent" straight downward to accept the hangers. So from the outside the bolts look vertically oriented but when removing they come out looking like bananas!
Will do pics when i get a chance later...
