While puttering this past weekend on my 1987 Pearson 33-2, I was looking at the steel compression post bolts at where the large metal plate at the bottomof the compression post attaches to the floor. The 2 bolts at each end are in solid fiberglass , whereas the 2 in the center appear to go into a block of wool with wires going through it. I discovered the wood was soft and had clearly been waterlogged during its past 30 years in the bilge. But it looks like the wood is not load-bearing and the weight transfer from the plate is to the fiberglass . If so, then penetrating epoxy would probably be a workable fix. Hard to see into the bilge under the metal plate, so interested if any other 33-2 owners have noticed a similar issue and and know whether or not the wood under the metal plate is a compression post or if the large metal plate transfers the compression by itself where it rests on the fiberglass. Thanks!
