I have purchased my first 21 foot sailboat.Sirius
It appears this boat sat more than it was used.
I removed everything.
I would like to talk with experienced people as yourself.
Keel support bolt holes seem to be slightly elongated from wear.
Is it normal to install bushings to make the holes true again?
It seems there is only 1/2 of fiberglass(on each side) supporting all the weight.
The repairs that were done I believe were not correct or with long term use in mind.
Are there any mechanical drawings available for this sailboat?
Thanks
Tom
