E 34T chainplate Knee

ringle

Inactive Member
My Starboard upper and intermediate chainplate failed, completely seperating from the hull and coming through the deck destroying my interior teak (bad news), didn't lose the mast (good news). Any body out there have similar problem and have a bomber fix? I have fixed the deck and re glassed the knee after extending the tangs on the knee, but now feel insecure as to the seaworthiness of the rig.
Any help would be appreciated.
