The Keel....

is a huge cast iron ready moulded item, weighing in at a wopping 11kilo !!

This is an expensive item, don't drop it !!


Robbe state that it needs rubbing down with coarse glass paper, which I did. Next I sprayed around 3 good coats of car primer ( red oxide in colour) to seal it and give some protection against rust.

It's now put aside to dry and for a later part of the construction.
