Measurements for otterboat keel

[Barndog]

Hello all - I am going to try to make a second set of keels but need measurements and my planers are 4hrs away on the boat. If someone out there has a keel handy or access to one, can you post the measurements? I think I only really need the lenght and width but the other numbers would be great. Trying to get it done before this weekend!!!

 

Thanks.

So... I ended up bending up some metal making the keel half as long protruding into the water with the other numbers being the same. No lead (metal). Finally bolted them on for this weekend and it seemed to work great! They pulled a little harder, tracked better, and I ran 1 copper rig off it with no issues. And it's not pulling so hard that I have to worry about breaking stuff...lol
