What Jake said. I dropped my keel after worrying about it with 15+ years of “keel smile”. Although our boat is like Jake’s model and having the full keel, there was virtually no problem with the keel bolts. The forward one had a small amount of pitting and the rest of them were like new.
I suspect that there will be no “surprises” with yours. Scroll down through my blog entry and you will see some photos of my keel bolts when I dropped it last year which should reassure you.
