This plastic plate, pad eye, fastener and bungee cord combo gives you everything you need to build a pair of attachment points for our kayak/pack canoe catamaran system. On the pack canoes it doubles as an attachment point for the removable backrest in the stern and self-rescue loops in the bow. Please read the following options carefully: These are sold in pairs and you will need 4 pairs total for 2 canoes or 2 kayaks. If only one forward attachment point is desired on the ridged deck modern kayaks, 3 pairs is enough, (4 will give you two potential attachment points on the ridged front deck which is useful at times) and if a second forward attachment point is desired on the front deck of the flat deck version (also useful at times see video), then 6 pairs will be needed. Keep in mind that if you are purchasing a kayak building kit from us you can select the back deck catamaran loops as part of the kit, and therefore you will only need to purchase the front deck attachments. Also, if this is intended for the forward attachment point on our flat deck F1 or LPB AND you'll be adding a sail, you'll want to add 2 stainless steel pad eyes to your order for the sail stays at the front of the forward catamaran attachment. (You do not need these if adding a sail to our original "ridged deck" versions.) If ordering a pair of these for the an attachment to be screwed into the hardwood forward deck stringers on the flat deck version only, you will need shorter fasteners than those provided. We sell this with 8 feet of very high quality marine grade bungee (twice as much as you need) so you have extra for mistakes and spare bungee for on the water repairs. Cut the bungee into 2 foot sections per attachment point for best bungee yield.
