Hi,
Looking for a little help. We own a 1988 46 Jefferson Sundeck MY, it has the davit system on the hardtop over the aft deck, but does not have the chocks/cradle for the dink. I have built a cradle our tender and want to attach it permanently via lag bolts. the problem is that I don't know where in the fiberglass top the solid supports are located. Any help on techniques to find the joists or from someone with the me boat with chocks in place would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
the Real Esc...
P.s. Yes, through bolting with backing plates will work, but I'd rather not ruin the astetics of the underside of the roof with backing plates. We are in relatively calm waters in the Midwest. ( for now)
