Stemhead Fittings

The two top fastenings are machine screws fixed through the deck 'upstand' from inboard into tapped holes on the stem fitting. The remainder are machine screws, normally tapped into the GRP though some may have 'helicoil' or similar inserts. Some boats may have had a long 'through' bolt fitted through the bottom of the stem fitting on the centreline with a large 'back-up' washer and nut inside the forepeak.
