Would a show judge please comment on the correct fastener type for the chrome plated, rectangular step pad? The boat is a 1949 25’ Sportsman. I seem to recall a judge told me many years ago that the screws are chrome plated, oval, slot head but would appreciate confirmation.
Thanks. Mike

That is correct, they should be chrome reed and prince I belive #8 X 1 1/4 in the thick part outboard and #8 X 1'' in the narrow inboard part.
