I need to do a haul out and inspection/repair to swing keel. Can anyone recommend a boatyard in the Mobile Alabama area.

Turner Marine at Dog River. They are a Catalina dealer. Are there not any facilities on the Fairhope side of the bay?

Yes there are some on the eastern shore but I have heard of some people having problems with the ones I know of. Thanks for the reference. I am a little reluctant to have them do a job like repairing swing keel. Bottom job, no problems.

Understood. You are, after all, dealing with an odd-shaped chunk of iron that weighs 1,500 lbs. Does the keel need to be removed from the boat or just dropped to get at the keel hangers and other hardware?
