...be replaced? I have no experience with keel bolts (technically, keel studs and nuts). Are these corroded to the point where they should be replaced? If the nuts need to be replaced, shouldn't the studs be also? The boat is a '73 P26.

They don't look so bad. Put a little penetrant on them and torque 'em up.
