stainless steel keel support & inner hull water possible leak

I contacted the VP of Operations at Triumph Boats about the stainless steel stringer and the possibility of inner hull water leaks and this was the official response:

Quote:
It is possible for water to enter the inner hull if the stainless steel
support that runs parallel to the keel (keel support) is not well bedded.
The keel support is installed into a cavity that is molded in and
through bolted to another stainless steel extension that is molded into
the last three feet of the keel running surface. The interface between
these two stainless steel supports is the most critical area to be
checked and well sealed.
