Jstply - yes it did drop violently . My tenative plan is to tie a line to the end of the keel and pull it to the stern with another boat. Hopefuly that will do the trick. I think the line will drop off after the keel swings aft a bit. Your thoughts on this approach would be appreciated. Thanks objohn

Do any of you 26 owners have any experience with a jammed swing keel. The cable broke on my 26 which naturally caused the keel to drop to the down position. I replaced the cable however the keel does not raise. Any ideas on what happened and how to fix it?
