I am looking to replace the keel bolts on my 285 they are pretty rusty and the Keel is a little lose. Can this be done in the water or has any one done this before and can lend some advise?

they have a written procedure on how to do replace keel bolts in the water. If its loose, I'd recommend pulling it as you'll have to lay a new bead of 5200 around the keel / hull joint. Here's a link to their FAQ page: http://www.beneteauusa.com/wps/wcm/connect/Beneteau_USA/Home/Contact+us/Service+Tips/USA_CLUB_LOGBOOK_TIPS_BA_Keel_Bolts_Rusting Good luck, Mac
