[C320-list] Companionway step

[Warren Updike]

Had the same problem: top step split port to Stbd.  At the time, Catalina in
CA had spares for $100. I opted to repair by placing an aluminum plate
between the step and the frame. It's been good for 5 years. Since 320 now
made in Fl, call there first.

We were out for a nice bay sail with friends last w/e. As i went to sheet in
the mainsail, I stepped on the top companionway step which broke as I came
down on it. I'd like to replace it, sooner rather than later. My wife, whom
I love dearly and has a great sense of humor, has taken to doing the
elephant trumpeting sound whenever I come down the companionway ladder... So
where do I get the wooden companionway step? Thanks in advance.
