Complete standing rigging replacement pending inspection of chainplates.
Shroud and backstay inspections are complete.
Question: for the stemhead & forestay chainplate inspection, please share
experience with disassembly, inspection, and reassembly of the forestay
chainplate..
Re-posting again
When inspecting chainplates prior to re-rigging (standing rigging), what
should I know about disassembling the bow chainplate and stemhead casting?
As that area reasonably serviceable? Stainless galling and oxide seizing
notwithstanding.
One chainplate has already been done and looked pristine.
