[C320-list] Stanchions

[John Van Vessem]

Bryan,
 
Thanks for your input, but I  can not find anything below the deck except two bolts and nuts, where is the third bolt?  By the way what is your hull number?

There are three (3) bolts for each single stanchion.

there is also a large bolt, washer and nut on the
bottom of the stanchion where it goes thru the toe
rail.  On hull 249 the wood trim piece is attached to
a fiberglass lip.  My stubby fingers couldn't get up
under this to get at the nut so I used a circular
drill bit to open a hole in the lip.  If you are lucky
the bolt and nut won't be partially buried in the
hull-deck sealer.  If it is you can just chip around
it.
