The chain plate is a bent stainless-steel tang. Mine was held in place with
a single screw into the plywood core of the cabin top. I have attached a
picture of the chainplate. Knowing the width, you should be able to
calculate pretty accurately where the screw would be. Removing a section of
the liner should allow you to remove the screw without needing to create a
large hole.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] How to replace forward lower chainplates?

Hi Rhodies,

I damaged one of my forward lower chainplates and need to replace it.

It  is evidently attached to something between the inner and outer
fiberglass skins, so my plan would be to cut an access hole from the inside.

Can you provide any guidance about how best to approach this project?

Thank you!
