[Rhodes22-list] Swing keel help

[Rob Granger]

Todd

That is how my keel is.   The pin was not glassed over however.  There were
to diamond shaped SS plates that were screwed into the keel outside. The
plates cover the ends of the SS pin so it does not slide out.  I found the
plates only after removing beacoup layers of bottom paint.  :-)  After
removing the plates, the pin just slides out.  I pushed mine out with a
phillips screwdriver.  The keel plopped out no problems.

The biggest problem I had was locating the two plates in my shed 8 months
later when I put the keel back into the boat....     :-(
