In Response To: Linear crack in keel (Dan levesqu)

sounds like the classic catalina smile. do you know if you have stainless keel bolts or just the original steel ones? if no stainless, go to catalina direct and buy them. sister the new ones with the old ones then make the glass fix. the repair is fairly straight forward and there are many articles/forums that discuss this problem. don't write the keel off - at least until you've examined the problem more closely.
