Sounds almost to good to be true, some of it is though, as the actual keel you will pay for but as long as we are supplying you with a kit to the Cape Henry 21 yacht, we can ship the steel drop keel part for free.
This is a CNC cut 25mm thick steel plate, its been milled on the edges, then grit blasted to remove the machine marks and millscale on the plate. This must be done, as millscale will prevent any paint or hot dip galvanising sticking to the plate.
This keel is heavy, myself and the guy who did the work can not lift it at all!
The keel will pack with the plys pack quite easily, its only a couple of 12mm plys thick, so the crate size will be hardly any higher, the cost to ship then will be zero.
Cost wise we came in better than prices on the west coast of the USA, so its a win win situation.
