I have an accepted offer in on a 2006 34T, but have not yet finalized the deal.
The boat has a few stanchion issues, such as one of four stanchion bolts appearing to be stripped on a number of the stanchions, and most of the aft flybridge stanchions are loose.
Does anyone know what is backing the machine bolts that are used for the stanchions? I can't see how I would gain access to the backing plates or nut/washers (whatever is used). Any ideas? Would I have to cut access panels below each stanchion in the gunnel side?
If I buy the boat, this will have to be addressed asap to avoid any additional water intrusion.
