Mal, I thought you were getting yours directly from Skyshops and picking them
up at Sun&Fun ?? I still haven't recd a $$ amt from Zaneta yet after a couple
emails and a couple phone calls , will try again. I have about 20 sets spoken
for.
Prior to the possibility of getting the properly designed part,several of us had
decided that doubled strips of 063 6061 t6 about 3 " wide and bent in the
middle to the hull angle would do the job but I don't think anyone built it
yet. LOW&SLOW John

why not just use a strip of alum and screw or rivet it on so that it can be
changed easily ?

The keel strip we are talking about serves 2 functions, first it is the piece that
joins the 2 forward bottom skins in the middle and second it provides a rub
strip. It is a "Y" shaped affair with the upper "V" portion at the same angle
as the hull bottom.
To answer your question, what you suggest is exactly what we were planning to do
however the "Y" strip is already fabricated (extruded) and is lighter. John

I have aerocets and it has a flat bottom that screws on.
I have seen a canadian manufacturer that uses strips epoxied on and it
seems to work fine . http://www.clamarfloats.com/
