A freind has a Cat30 that has a slight " Smile " and it tends to leek water into the bilge, thus it is never dry. The boat is getting ready for dry dock for repainting and blister repair. What is the best way to go about fixing the " Smile "? Any help would be great.

Is he sure it's the smile that's leaking?

Lots of potential leaks all over a boat - might not be the smile. If it is, do as Chris suggested

Mike; I've heard of sailors using a floor jack to raise the keel a little and retightening the nuts on the keel bolts.
