Hello good people of the sailing world.
This is the first time I have ever used a forum other than reading a few over the years. I just bought a used 22 foot catalina for my teenage boys. We went out of town for a few weeks and someone has stolen the keel... It sounds crazy but it is true. If anyone can help us with information on finding a keel or buying a used one it would be greatly appreciated. We live in the Rockwall area of the Dallas...

It is a 86 catalina, I am an old windsurfer so I am not familiar with sail boats. I know that the keel weighed over 700lbs. I was going to repair the broken brackets that it attached to. It is not a fixed keel but I am sure you guys know that by now. Anyway it was a gift for my boys... We just recently moved to Gulf Breeze Florida and are in the process of moving our two boats. After this drama passes maybe I will be able to get some advice on the 1984 32' carver I just purchased... I was sure there would be some boat yard with a wrecked carver somewhere in the florida area I moved to...
Thanks everyone for the advise

I meant to say that I was hoping to find a wrecked catalina.... I am just a little tired... I have been in front of my pc way to long today.
