Which "keel bolt" are you refering too? Is it a swing or fixed keel? If its a swing, then the keel is held in place by a bronze pivot pin, two castings and four bolts. It is not held in place by a single bolt as other swing keelers are. All of the parts can be found on this site in the store. You can (and should ) order them from here so that you know they will be the right ones. The safety of the boat demands that they be replaced with the proper parts as failure could lead to an unexpected and abrupt rotation and submersion of the vessel.
