« Last post by Yngmar on Yesterday at 18:29 »The whole point of a backing plate laminated into the deck is that you do not need access from the inside. You drill a hole, cut a thread into the thick aluminium backing plate and insert the bolts into that. That's how the winches and rope clutches were mounted on our 40 Ocean (even though there was access from the inside). The mooring cleats had proper backing plates on the inside and access slots in the furniture for them. No idea what the B31 from 2000 has.
