Epoxy the marked locations for the Backers and place them sanded-side-down. Bow Backer and Side Backer shown.
Attach the Mast Step Backer then apply filled epoxy to the King Post Upper Mount and set into place.
Check that it is centered. The mount’s center recess should align with the center Mast Step locator dimple, indicated by the
drill bit used as a pointer so you can adjust the mount to center. In the Transom, first glue in the white plastic spacer into the
center recess and press into place.
Add filled epoxy to the white plastic spacer. Press the fiberglass Backer into the spacer. Slide the Backer 3/8-inch down
from the top of the transom. This is to allow room for the Transom to fit into the Deck groove easier.
