[Alberg30] Forward Chainplates

[Mike Lehman]

For caulking around chainplates, I have used a number of different products 
over the years incl. Rule Elastomeric; #M 101; Boat Life and it always seems 
that every year I need to re-caulk them, so my conclusion is caulk them 
every year as part of spring commissioning. What experiences have others 
had?

Hello,
I would appreciate any thoughts on strengthening the forward lower
chainplates, as they seem to be mentioned as a possible weak spot.  Is it
just a matter of increasing the bolt size, or is strengthening the bulkheads
involved?  Also, what caulks have you had luck with around the chainplates
exit through the deck.  Thanks for the help,

P.S.  Is masonite considered a superior core material to balsa in the A-30?
