[C320-list] Inspection Port

[Dave Sparks]

Karl:
Yes, someone on the list described the installation of a deckplate (I did a
quick look on the C320 website and did not find a picture). I followed their
instructions and installed a deckplate in the aft engine cover of my boat.
I've been pleased with the modification. If I were to do it again, I would
cut the opening a little higher. Now I must sit in the floor to see the
opening when replacing the oil stick.
