Thanks for the email Ted, I went with Wichard U-Bolts.

:: Can anyone tell me the eye straps that they are using on
:: the transom below the cockpit drains so you can run the
:: backstay line through the drains?
::
:: Based on the load it is all shear so I am looking at the
:: Harken four hole eye strap.
::
:: If anyone is interested I have started posting pictures
:: and one video with more coming on the rebuild I did this
:: winter and some last Spring on #115. The boat is used
:: for Single Handed Sailing and a Double Handed race when
:: I have to. The rebuild was stiffing below, new rudder,
:: stripped deck and simpler deck layout, inventory from
:: Kame at Pineapple, and electronics package for my
:: sailing with pilot. Info is on my sites blog:

:: [email protected]
::
:: Last summer was a great learning season for me and
:: Kincora, and this year I will be pouring on the miles.
:: My buddy has a Olson 30 and we trek together both single
:: handed and have a blast doing a lot of miles.
::
:: Thanks Carl
