[C320-list] Broken Stanchion

[hcreech at comcast.net]

Joe, 
I replaced the stanchion that is located above the aft cabin, maybe the hardest to replace. If that is the one you are replacing let me know and I will tell you how it was done. If somewhere else I can still give you suggestions, but I will wait for your reply.

Thanks Alan and Bruce. I can reach under the deck and feel the 
large nut and bolt but cannot get a direct shot at it with a socket 
or wrench. Can anyone advise me?
