[Public-List] Chain Plates

[mpcylinderheads at gmail.com]

FWIW, I upgraded the size of my chainplate and hardware. I also increased the size of the rig as Yves did on his. I think that leaving the in the stock location is just easier. There is a boat on bluewaterboats.org that has out board chainplates, I believe the boat is in Australia. I just left mine where they were added bigger hardware and backing plates. Good luck!

Work on Tanager #349 is progressing really well. Hoping to gain some knowledge on chainplates. I've seen a few Tritons with chainplates moved to the hull but not any Albergs. Has anyone done this? Why or why not? My new chain plates are a fair bit larger and in order to fit, I'd have to lengthen the knees and widen the deck cutout. Not difficult, but if moving to the hull is stronger, why not? The plan is to go offshore cruising for an extended period.
Thanks all,ClaytonTanager #349www.optimisticwanderings.tumblr.com
