[Alberg30] engine pan

[Bill Blevins]

The beam sisters or the plate on the bottom of the mast? I'm going back over on Monday. I'll ask on both.

I remember them saying that the one for the mast foot didn't have much magnesium in it. They didn't want to weld it either. I went with what they recommended.
