Congrats!! To answer your question concerning the forward keel damage (bottom two pics), YES I would look to repairing these as a top priority. Just me, I'm not big into holes in the hull that can let water "weep" between layers of glass, especially the bow entry area while on plane. I had the gelcoat knocked of my bow from the precious owner loading on a POS trailer. I used some Marinetex to patch and it's still in great shape. Good luck!
