Ron,
Its not the vented wast stanchion, but the next one further forward by the shrouds. My boat has a long ash batten board between the top salon shelf and the bottom of the side deck. The ash batten is fitted between the inboard and outboard pair of bolts of the stanchion. Even if I dremel a couple of notches in the top of the board, I cannot pull the board inward. It is fixed some how. Glue maybe since I don't see screws?
Thanks,
Paul
