[Rhodes22-list] Chainplate reinstallation

[Stephen Staum]

Rob,

What is the backing block made of?

Are they sheet metal screws holding the chainplate to the block or machine 
screws w/ nuts attached (I assume countersunk so the block sits flush)?

Thanks again,  Stephen

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
