We just pulled our 1995 29.5 out of storage. We had sanded and painted the hull last year with West Marine Pro. There was an fresh-appearing oily residue, somewhat viscous at the joint between the bulb and the keel on both sides. It almost looked like an area where water dripped on it but it was more like oil and was about 6 inches long. Any ideas?

Rusty?

Was the liquid/fluid rusty in color? If so, it may be water/bilge sludge (diesel,oil,grime) that potentially leaked via keel bolts. I hope not. If it came from inside the keel seeping through the fiberglassed keel seam, it would have a rusty color. If it doesn't.....man, that is a wierd one. Doug
