Oh, around chain plate deck rot damage on my boat was not less that 1/2 inch and no more than 1.5 inch around chain plate.

:: Pulled chain plates, scrapped out rot, refilled with
:: gbrothers epoxy mixed ballons for the expansion affect
:: at curing.,recut chain plate entry through deck,
:: inspected bulk head chain plate bolt holes for hard
:: sheen, reinstalled chain plates, sealed with liquid life
:: caulk under standard stainless cap. Some have layered
:: one sheet of graphite/glass between aft blkhead knee and
:: chain plate.
