    that's curious.. A-231's bilge looks equally shallow, but my lift rings are on the centerline. it would be interesting to get some measurements from the bilge to the floorboards on a couple boats to see how similar/different they are in profile.

    it might take an xray or a thermal imager to know what is really down there without breaking out a saw.

    Those rings are likely attached to the main external ballast located in the keel.
