Howdy Sean, Glad to hear you will be hanging on to your M23, you know that old saying about not really missing something till it's gone (was that water or a woman?). Also, the heavy bulb style keel weight has been used in racing boats and has been know to exit. The Minnesota racer Mike Plant had this happen to Cyote while he was single handing her across the Atlantic. They found the boat, but Mike was lost at sea. Put up those sails and sail what ya got.
