Replying to:rl28 keel wont lower
I'm in the process of purchasing an rl 28, there are several on the market. A broker has one for sale, and i'm about to go and hasve a look. Whilst talking to the broker he mentioned that the keel wont lower, he believes it is due to barnacles etc in the casing, also owner was reluctant to orhanise a survey but has now agreed, does anyone have asny thoughts as to why it wont lower, (apart from obvious, that being, problems with the hydraulics) i find it hard to believe that given the weight of the keel that barnacles would prevent it from lowering. boat is on a permanent mooring in nsw, has only been used a few times by the current owner, broker says shes "due for slipping, any advice appreciated, regards Peter
