Keel behavior

[Anonymous]

I am still getting used to my 1999 26X, and I am wondering if it is normal that my keel seems very slow to lower when released? I have theorized that when I am moving, perhaps the water pressure keeps it from dropping quickly, but even when stopped, it takes sometimes a minute or two to finally fully drop. I can’t understand what this is happening, and I know my bottom is clean, as well as the keel area last I checked. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Richard on Zephyr

Mine doesn’t drop until I am slow or almost stopped. When stopped it drops in a few seconds. Something interfering?
