Up date: hauled my 1988 O'day 302 boat a few weeks ago, as it was on the travel lift the operator noticed a little drooping and wobble of the keel. Sailingdog and I cleaned the bilge and checked the bolts, saw nothing wrong in the bilge. Dawg was there when they lifted the boat off the keel, but do to the mast still stepped they only lifted it a few inches. the only thing Dawg saw was a bad bedding job, the 3M 5200 did not adhere to the boat or lead, bolts looked ok at lead. The po had a problem a with the back bolt 7 years ago and had it replaced.
A few questions,
1, does anyone know for sure if there is a core in the hull construction at the keel joint on this boat?
2, should I drill down from the top with a 3/4in hole saw between 2 bolts to see what is down there?
MaineSail and others, your advise is greatly appreciated.
