[C38] hauling for bottom painting

[S. Orton]

It is the fwd edge of the  lead keel where it mates with the keel fiberglas stub.  If you have it you can't miss it as the crack will be up to 2 ft long.

  Patrick,  Just make sure the yard places the keel support (usually a 2 x 6 or 8 placed sideways)  as far forward as possible.  Do not allow any support at the aft end of the keel!  Take a close up picture of the smile area before the boat is placed in the cradle.

    When hauling Catalina 38 for bottom painting is there a "special" way to place the vessel so it doesn't get a "smile" injury to its hull?
