English term or phrase: full-depth keel
From a catalog of boats, in a table giving details on the different models available

Prop/rudder protection: Bronze skeg/strut. Optional full depth keel.
Full depth .63m wide boxed keel with stainless skeg

I can't really figure out the full depth of what we#re talking about here. Does the keel actually go over the entire height of the boat?

neutral  Katja Schoone: Ich finde das Belegmaterial nicht wirklich überzeugend. Der erste ist ein Segelblog, der keinen Aufschluss darüber gibt, ob Normalkiel = full-depth und der 2. handelt von Sägeblättern. Von der Säge kann man aber nicht auf ne Yacht schließen.
