Re: [Electric Boats] Re: Project

 

It had a 360 lb fixed keel that someone removed and left the holes.

The hull came in a CB version but builder won't supply details except the boat is 180 lbs light in centerboard.

Not planning to sail it  If needed will do a shallow but long skeg

what kind of keel is it? depending on type, you may not want to eliminate it entirely. 

my venture 21 has 400 lbs of lead on the end of a swing keel. when i make my electric transition, i expect to pull that keel off and replace with a lighter version still giving directional control when folded and stability in rough weather when dropped or when using sails.
