Was looking for eye plates and found one like a U-bolt that goes right through and fastens on the back.

But an insane price!

Can't seem to find another source - can anyone else please?

Sadly not planning to visit France!

However via Steelgear www.steelgear.co.uk/product.php?productid=865&... I've found www.proboat.co.uk/item.asp?cat_id=33&prod_id=5... which looks very smart - about £12 each - and will match the white superstructure.

Thanks Dan, I really wanted the round U-bolt version (below) but if RSP is £55 I doubt you'll find one for a sensible price!



Trying to decide between the white U-bolt above, and a conventional square eye plate with a strip of mild steel behind it for reinforcement. (It will be fixed to the cabin wall just above the deck - I don't want it to pull a lump of wall out!)
