Hi,

Has anyone else 325 owner  have these holes on the keel? On the picture you can see 2 elliptical circles (about 400mmx200mm). Inside of the circle there is no nothing, its a big blister. I have same thing opposite side of the keel.

Interesting!  This is a new issue to the Form.  May be it is a deliberate design by Hanse to keep the required weight yet have a deep keel.

Hi Ippe,
 
I have a 325 with the same kind of hollow keel. The picture attached seems to be rather stretched out but it looks as if the areas you have circled may be on about the same position on the keel as my "holes".
I asked my dealer about this and according to him this hollowness is intended and thus nothing to worry about, I asked for picture evidence from the production too, but haven't received anything yet.
 
Kind regards,
Matte

Hi,
 
Maybe Hanse is using the same keel with 325 and 355, but they have reduced weight of the keel at this area.
