Today, I installed the new stainless steel chainplates and covers, the final job on the list, other than preparations for the delivery trip scheduled for mid-May.

I had to open up the deck slots a bit to accommodate the new chainplates, and after they were all installed I used machine screws set in tapped deck holes to secure the chainplate covers with lots of sealant (they have a raised area around the chainplate itself to allow plenty of sealant to remain within).
