The Toe rails starting to go back on the boat

At last the major deck job is underway with the refitting of the toe rails which will be the thing that finally fixes the deck to the hull 


The major job with the refitting the toe rails was the fitting over the new chain plates which were made to come up through the deck and then through the toe rails which had slots cut in the toe rails fit them in the correct position.


This photo shows the position of the chain plates and that them are flush against the inside face of the upstand part of the toe rail.


The final part of the toe rail getting pulled into position with a length of rope . 


The finally finished off and now just need to run a bead of sealant along the bottom edge of the toe rail to finish off the job and clean off the excess sealant from the deck.
