Moody 376 Help Needed: Keel Bolt Inspection on 1986 Moody 37.6

Hi everyone, My wife and I are currently looking at a 1986 Moody 37.6, and we're keen to inspect the keel bolts thoroughly. However, we're facing some challenges in locating all of them. Could someone please advise us on how many keel bolts we should find on a Moody 37.6 and approximately where they are typically located on the boat? Also, which floorboards might need to be removed for inspection? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards from Sidney, BC, Canada.

forward of the engine under the fuel tank. access through the engine bay hatch.
under the companionway ladder there is a small inspection cutout that can be removed to see a couple. possible bilge pump location as well
you will have to remove the ladder and then unscrew the sole boards boards to see a bit more in that area. all of the others are under the salon table which will require the table to be removed before the sole boards can come out.
there may be one bolt in the forward access hatch just fwd of the mast post. will also likely find knot/depth sounder in that location.
