Not too bad.  Here are some photos of what Slim did when he had a pulled chain plate.

Above shows backing block epoxied to the outside skin after an access hole is cut in the cabin liner.

Shows attachment screws that are drilled through cabin side and inner backing block.  I used nylons screws for this instead of metal because I wanted the screws to break if this ever happened again.  Didn't want the whole cabin side being ripped out.

Shows cover plate over access hole.


The inner chain plates bend once they come through the cabin top and are screwed into the cabin top plywood under the cabin liner.  What Slim and I both did was mounted a straight chain plate to the boat and attach it through the side of the cabin.  I'm pretty sure Stan came up with this repair.  I'm using Slim's photo's since he did a neater job than I did. Slim?? - rob
