Hey all, The cable to my swing keel broke the last time I took the boat for a sail. She stays in the water all year (which is probable part of the problem) so this in not an immediate issue, but I will need to replace it. Does anyone have a pic of how the cable is attached to the keel so I have an idea of what I will need when I pull her to replace the cable? Any other advice related to this repair would also be appreciated. Thanks for any help.

What kind of boat do you have? It depends if the cable broke or the the part of the centerboard that the cable attached to broke. Go in for a swim and find out.
It is a Sirius 21. I was looking for a pic so that I could collect the materials for the repair before going for a swim. Figured going for one swim was better than two
Thanks Daryl, This definitely helps. We keep her in the water and sail all year so it has been a couple of years since I have seen the underside.
