Installation of five chainplates on a catamaran cabin top requires precise alignment of hardwood backing plates and structural sealing. To ensure a watertight fit, the process involves a dry-fit bolting sequence to align the hardware, followed by bonding the backing plates with epoxy. Because the intermediate shrouds meet the cabin top at a slight angle, the stainless steel chainplates require a four-to-five-degree bend to match the mast attachment point.9:19 This bending is performed using a workshop press.17:19 After the epoxy cures, the bolts are removed to allow for final sealing with Sikaflex sealant on the exterior.11:16 The project also includes plugging rub rail holes with waterproof wood glue and preparing for future rigging work using 10mm Dyneema.14:53 The goal is to reach a functional sailing condition within the summer season, with remaining tasks including the installation of running rigging, mast lights, and additional shrouds.
