Attachment of rear rub rail
While working on my fuel tank project, I discovered the the wood that holds the part with female threads where the rub rail bolt screw in was all dry rotted. Anyone tackle this project yet? Solutions?

Re: Attachment of rear rub rail
Are you talking about the wood 'backing strip' on the inside of the deck to hull joint? Don't think I have pictures, but if I remember correctly bolts for the rub rail come in through the hull/deck joint and through the wood strip, then have nuts/washers or 'blind nuts' on the inside.
