After a year trying to find Marine grade stainless steel 7mm 1pitch nuts of replace the nuts on my life lines I finally called Beneteau USA. The nuts they have are $6.45 per nut and cheap plastic. I nearly lost a person over board because of this. Does anyone know of a place which WILL have quality nuts of this size. I have called and email just about every Fastener place in the USA with no luck. Sad that this French boat has such cheap parts. Maybe it is just for US owners, it is time to sell!
