How deep into the lead are the keel bolts usually? Are they just single straight bolts or do they have an *L* like a concrete foundation anchor? Or maybe a U-bolt that is inside the lead? I have to remove the keel bolts from my 1000-Lb lead keel and was just curious what length and shape I can expect to deal with? The keel from my 1977 C&C 24 is in just as good of shape as the one in this video. Sadly though I couldn't find the C&C a new home and ended up stripping all salvageable and resellable parts off the vessel, then cut it up and hauled it to the landfill. Been hanging onto the keel in hopes to find another C&C owner in need of one but now it too will be scrapped.
Great video thanks
Yahct name Stoma or Stroma ?
Health and Safety my Arse! No eye, or respiration protection let alone back up support to the crane?

So you got the keel off. What’s wrong with it ? Iooked like it needed a good cleaning and a new paint job.
6:27 no eye protection....
koruyucu iş gözlüğü kullanmanız gerekiyor
You have to be very happy with the condition the keel bolts were in. A sign of quality workmanship. Nice video, thanks
A good trick an old hand saw to clean out the cavity , the bolts ar not in far
And remember this . . . Norm will go ballistic!
Grinding and breathing in fine lead dust . No resporater ! Wtf!? Dont do it!!
I spent the first 30 seconds jiggling my headphone cord! ha ha ha
heh ... one dyslexic again ... this ship is STROMA not STOMA.
You really need to be wearing eye protection when using the grinder.
Eye protection!!!
