what keel for offshore
Mike
Q: “Are there reinforcement members that can be added ...”
A well designed keel attachment might include a bilge sump box (what’s it called Jeff?), which acts like a keyway spline for the keel-hull joint.
Q: “...Is the likelihood of making contact with a submerged container so minimal that it should not require drastic mods?”
Yes, unlikely enough that I wouldn’t let the possibility affect the boats basic design.
Q: “...Would the correct implementation of forward looking depthfinders/sonars make said collisions less likely?”
No.
