I have a 1992 33.5 and one of the keel bolts has a slight leak. Can
anything be done to correct while the boat is in the water?

Two things

1. Try torquing it to see if it will move. Probably not, since the weight is pulling down so much.

2. Run aground on a sandbar at mid-tide and let the tide run out to put pressure on the keel. This won't work so well in Chicago since Lake Michigan has no tide, but I'm just sayin.
