Since it's the running bottom, I'd do area repair on the bad spots and call it good. A keel guard will fix the worn keel, no point in doing little repairs there and then covering them with a keel guard. Any holes from the inside should be fixed from the inside, but if not possible, stuff the hole full of glass fiber soaked in resin and push it into shape, sand, and then put a dab of gel coat on a piece of clear packing tape and squeegee it out, let it kick, sand and buff. Gel coat chips repair the same way, tape repairs are the standard.

Back it up on a set of ramps. Lock it down well, don't want to have it take off on you. Missed your call the other day, was up at Baudette with the Pay It Forward Veterans group.
