Are these missing? If not easy to repair, do it from the underside, this is from my F32:

no that big one at the stern is still in tact and in good shape its the little one that goes with the huge one at the stern, and the other one that you stand on before going into the cabin. Mine were gone when I got the boat , the previous owner utilized 3/4pt plywood and then screwed down trex decking overtop the pt. Then all was painted with some white paint"very cobish looking"and VERY heavy!!!. I'll try beacon marine and see if I have any luck. thanks for the input

My aft hatch is getting a soft spot. Do you have any pictures of your repair or any pointers?
