Can anyone identify my recently acquired 18ft sloop? It is fibreglass hull with plywood superstructure. The bilge keels appear to be half metal and half wood. I am particularly interested to know how the keels are fitted to the hull. Any owners of similar boats please get in touch as I have a long refurbishment ahead of me and any assistance would be much appreciated. John Millichap
