Bought a 1984 Hunter 27 recently. There is some exposed lead on the keel where some paint is chipping off. Any advice?

It's only an issue if it's like that because it's been grounded against some rocks. If you are worried check the keel bolts and if you aren't comfortable doing that pay for a surveyor to do it for you, would take them like less than 10 minutes.

This...that missing paint might be doing you a favor.
