I recently acquired a zodiac FC 470 for a good price BUT it did not include the inflatable keel. Anyone know where I can purchase one? Or can someone tell me what its diameter is in case I need to make one somehow. Thank you. I'm new to this forum. What a great resource.

You would get it from any Zodiac Mil/Pro dealer. Zodiac Recreational dealers do not have access to Mil/Pro parts. Where are you located?

I'm in Southern California. You'd think it'd be easy but after a number of calls I've still got no answer. I'll continue to pursue it tomorrow. I was hoping someone on here who owns a FC 470 might just know so I could jerry rig something temporarily until I found a proper one. Oh well.

You should be able to use any type of inflatable keel that has the same measurements to fit your Zodiac, only problem is, these days the inflatable keel is actually welded onto the hull material from the inside, to keep it into position. As you can see here, these inflatable boats have a similar inflatable keel set up. But i think it could still work if you retro fitting one to your boat

Do you have a roll up floor or hard deck?
