One of the several things I like about my old Pearson is how easy it is to access, inspect, and remove if necessary, the chainplates.

It's on my list of "to-dos" - the surveyor recommended I pull them one at a time (so I won't have to take down the standing rigging) just to make sure there's no crevice corrosion or anything. Just eyeballing them from within the cabin, they look perfectly fine - there are no rust streaks anywhere.

But yeah, on the list... sigh....
