Having seen EE's blog post about the compression post being rotten at the bottom, I was wondering what others are using to replace the wooden post in their boats?

A former Chrysler sailor with handle Sauerleigh made this for the base of his compression post. So yes, you can replace the wooden post. This one is stainless.
