| On June 10th I finally got some pictures of the new aft lower chainplates. The machine shop finished all the new chainplates in late May, and I took them to the electropolishing shop afterwards. They came out looking fantastic. |
| The port side. Each chainplate is bolted in with 4 3/8" bolts spaces abot 1 5/8" apart. The chainplates themselves are 316L stainless, 1/4" thick and 1" wide.

| Starboard aft lower... |
| Today I worked on the backstay knee, first sanding it and then expanding the deck slot to accommodate the new 1 3/4" by 1/4" chainplate. I test fit the chainplate but left bedding for later. |
