Jim,
I have a 1978 # 3692 and ALL my lines ( 8 ) run back to the cockpit on starboard
and the handrails are not in the way ??? I have stacked organizers and a block
under them and they clear the rails.I thought the handrails were the same
for many years.

Listmavins,
I want to lead my halyards to the cockpit, but on my '73 model the
handrails on the coach roof are right in the way. I need to move the handrails
outboard, and want to reuse the old handrails, so my problem is drilling new
holes that will either line up with existing screw holes in the rails, or plug
the old holes and redrill (easiest I think). So here is the problem, what do
you plug the holes in teak with, that will keep the wood strong, and won't
force a drill bit off to the side when it hits it. Is fiberglass with milled
fibers the way to go? Or teak dust and epoxy as a filler? Thanks in advance.
