[Public-List] Encapsulated iron keel

[Peter Hurrey]

I would like to see those photographs. With a liner boat as is 540 - has
anyone done something similar? It would seem like a major job, so wonder if
anyone else has had problems with the iron keel rusting and expanding?

For safety, the list strips off binary files.  If you want to email the 
photos directly to me, I'll place them on the website.
