Trailer Sailer Keel Removal – Boat Repairs Medowie NSW

You are here: Home / General Boat Repairs / Trailer Sailer Keel Removal – Boat Repairs Medowie NSW

June 9, 2021 by Boatique Services

The working parts on any boat need constant attention. This RL24 trailer sailer yacht had a very rusty keel which needed removal to undergo sandblasting and re-paint. It is common to have swing keels made from a heavy material like cast iron or lead to provide stability while sailing. We lifted the yacht onto stands so the swing keel could be lowered out of the hull. Once the keel has been refurbished we will be re-installing it.
