I used these to run fuel lines and oil lines on my VW. They are very flimsy and the rubber is kind of clunky. Also I don't know what type of stainless they are but I sure wouldn't use them for saltwter. Did you see my post about using surfboard leash cups for recessed deck rigging? They don't stick up from the deck to interfere with re-entry. Just around $2 each.
