Street Legal: bilges and keels

Just admiring the inside of my newly cleaned up composite street legal

 - quite fond of the outside view  too. But the bilge protruberances look like a leftover distortion to satisfy  a measurer - presumably to rather old rules.

Anyone have any experience or advice about removing these? (perhpas in an archived mewsletter article?)

More structurally, when feeling braver, what about that keel?

Ta in anticipation.

Hi IanL!

A word with Kevan Bloor of Alverbanks sails might help you. He's in the book. He's helped me a lot recently with my Tigress N3130 and knows a lot about AC boats amongst  a lot of other things.

Good luck with restructuring, but be prudent with protrusions!

Jim (N3130 Nutty Shell).
