What many of you missed is the photo of the boat on straight boards which are not curved to fit the hull is the first issue as I strongly feel the hull is depressed in and that alone can damage a hull in a heartbeat.

I have seen many boats damaged in lifts that did not support the boat correctly and with a fixed keel, it is highly recommended that a keel tray be used and I have seen many built that way even in Maryland. If anyone even thinks of buying a boat without proper support, then a survey is in order first or buyer beware. I have nothing else to offer.
