We are preparing to purchase a new boat and have discovered a hairline crack on the aft end of the keel. The crack is irregular and about 2 inches long extending on both sides and around the aft end. The dealer believes it is common and may be a result of the keel casting or because of the hull/keel joint flexing during transport. The boat has never been in the water. Should we be concerned? Any suggestions?
The following are links that show pictures of the crack:
