Editor’s note – I, personally do not recommend placing any weight on the thin keel plate that runs about 2/3 of the length of the boat. My own advice would be to eliminate the two midship, centre-line blocks in the drawing above, leaving the weight supported mostly on the chines. The for and aft centre-line blocks are quite acceptable as they will be off of the small keel plate and provide useful support against swaying. DP
