I have just aquired a 84 V2-22, All that is left of the keel is the steel plates. I will eventually re-do the keel myself or buy a new one, but does anyone have any knowledge about how much sailing with it as is, affects overall performance? Also, I have seen a web page with peformance mods that shows a wooden keel mod for a V25, would that work for the V2-22? Thanks for any help
