C22 Keel Dry Fit

The keel studs were binding in the keel stub.  Decided to raise the boat above the keel studs and drill out out the holes a little more where necessary.  It was fairly easy to raise/lower the boat with the additional jack stands.

Added some butyl tape to the studs:

Forward

Mid

Aft

Went inside the boat the dry fit the stainless backer plates:

Forward
Mid

Aft
The holes on the aft plate would not line up (plate put on upside down here).  It fit fine in the shop!  I think the one stud is bending in slightly.

The shop was locked and there wasn't anyone around with the key, so I spent about 3 hours sanding the port side.  The sanding is now about 3/4 done.
