Sme final priming of removeable parts
Primed the bottom of the removeable mast step, and the back of the main sheet brightwork plate.  Warning on bottom about overtightening too long a bolt to hold down the part.  Remember, there are embedded nuts in the permanent part of Mast foot.  Using too long a bolt will dig into the lower innards when tightened down too far.  4.5 turns will put plenty thread into that embedded nut without this risk. See older detail pictures.
