I just had a 1985 E32-3 surveyed and I was hoping someone could give me some insight on the keel/hull connection. There is the very common “smile” at the connection, but this “smile” runs the full circumference of the keel.
The surveyor said I should definitely get this fixed. Either fair a v along the line and fill or lossen the bolts and rebed the keel.
I’m not sure if this is the surveyor being overly cautious and covering himself from a potential problem, even though the likihood is small, or if this is an immediate, real concern.
it does look like water is weeping from a few spots along this line.
I do do have a picture, but I’m not quite sure how to include it.
any insight is appreciated
