At the club last week and noticed a fellow member tolling away on the
work bench behind our spar shed.......there is a big vice on it that
makes it convenient to do some jobs.
I walked over to say hello and discovered he was cutting out 'backing
plates'.....asked him where he was installing them.
He said his deck cleats on the bow of his recently purchased Beneteau 49
(30,000 lbs.) did not have backing plates....and he keeps his boat on a
mooring.
And he sold a C&C 41 for a Bene 49.....he said he is beginning to
discover the difference in the overall quality of construction between
the two boats.
Thought I would pass that little piece of information along to anyone
thinking of buying a quality built Bene!
