The keel does project below the props on our President 41. We have 24 X 24 props. Coming up the Hudson River in 2016 at 10 mph we hit countless submerged objects. We were keeping a very good lookout but the branches or trees limbs were not visible. We could feel the impact all the way up on the bridge. When we hauled the boat for the winter there was absolutely no damage to the props. So I guess that the keel does protect the props very well.
