Hey all,



Just repainted my deck and I'm wondering which orientation these pieces are designed to swing, Port/Starboard or Forward/Aft? There are 4 of them and they support the mast. I'd like to know before sealing them with 5200. Thanks!

Drew - hard to tell from the picture, quick reply here;...but aren't those the chain plate holes for the mast support? I think they point to the mast..ie up because they will be under tension holding up the mast.

Use butyl tape to seal them, not 5200.

Basically port-starboard to align with the angles of the lower shrouds up to the mast. But do you have a choice?

My chain plates,Not that toggle that is attached to your chain plates all are aligned/pointing toward the mast.
