Re: Carbon Eyestraps
In Response To: Re: Carbon Eyestraps (Mark N)
On my last two builds, I used carbon eyestraps epoxied directly to the deck prior to varnish. They are light, strong, and look pretty good. The downside is that they are expensive if you don't make your own. CLC sells them.
I hope you have better luck than I have had with glued only deck fittings.
I tried this about 20 years ago and had them pop off in hot weather!
For high stress points I never trust glue alone.
