Keel seepage would concern me particularly in salt water. Not just the annoyance factor but the thought of anaerobic corrosion of the stainless keel bolts. If this has been going on for some time I'd be inclined to drop the keel, inspect the bolts and do a Wally style re-bed. It's expensive and I may be over thinking this but the peace of mind it would bring while offshore in 45 knots may be worth it.
