    Hello everyone, I am owner of a FP Athena 38 and the studs from my septers are broken. 3 already and waiting for more to break. In total there are 21 sepeter studs to support the railing around the boat. Fontaine Pajot itself does not react. Is there some one who has a solution for that?
    Kind regards Waldemar

    Welcome to the Forum Waldemar.

    Here is a link to a sister ship for sale, for general reference.

    Can you explain please what are septers, or sepeters?
    I am guessing that they are the stanchions that support the lifelines / guardrails around the deck edge?
    I presume that each stanchion (sepeter?) has a threaded stud on the underside for bolting it to the deck, as per the photo below (taken from the above link)?

    Can you post a photo or two of a typical broken stud please?
