362 Loose stanchion base screw

 

One of the flat head screws on a stanchion base on our 362 is loose/able to be turned and there is a bit of rust weep coming from under the base. It is the inboard aft screw of the forward stanchion at the starboard side gate. The forward inboard screw/nuts are visibly poking through just above the stove next to the aft cabin bulkhead. The aft screw is not visible. I tried removing a bit of nearby trim but no dice. I¡¯m able to feel some of the through bolts for the toerail/outer sail track but can¡¯t seem to locate the screw in question. The stanchion base doesn¡¯t feel loose so I am considering just sealing with 3M4000UV and calling it good. Any help/advice appreciated as always.

I have the same issue on my 362 and haven¡¯t figured out the fix. I emailed Glen at Sabre a few years back and he wasn¡¯t able to help. It almost seems that the bolt is installed into the bulk head? Let me know if you come up with a way to repair it.
