Hi, I have just bought a 537, It also has a skeg keel. Have you found any info on fitting bilge keels. Will it affect sailing ability, is fitting stainless bar or pipe supports the shape of bilges an option, any info on the 537 would be well received. I am coastal in northumberland. Any one looking for a petrol drinking sports cruiser please get in touch. Regards Bill.
