I bed everything with butyl now, after having read that article on the
compass marine website. I have not been disappointed yet.
I always do as compass instructs. If cored, over drill, plug off,
re-drill, countersink holes and bed with butyl.

*Subject: *Re: Stus-List stanchion re-bedding
Thanks Chris. Good to know rot is not a concern. The stanchion bends
are subtle and not creased so a vice should be able to straighten.
RE: vertical cracks on stanchion bases. I'll check this too as you
recommend, although I'm having trouble picturing this without being on
the boat with the stanchions in front of me. I'm sure I'll it will
become clearer when at the boat.

Assuming we're not talking about severe enough bends that the
stanchion has a crease, that is a reasonable plan. There likely
isn't any rot because the deck core terminates before the
stanchions and toe rail.
Check your stanchion bases for vertical cracks on the outboard
side (in line with the set screws). You may need to replace them,
I did on my 1978 34.
