The deck organizer screws are threaded anchors, not through bolts... I'm trying to clean up the cluster of lines at the base of my mast. I was planning on double stacking the organizers on the starboard side to match what was done by the factory on the port side. I found the matching part, found the proper length screws to secure them (...thanks, for the replies on that thread!), and was working on the installation today, when... $#!+!
The factory installation uses threaded anchors embedded in the deck, not through bolts. The inboard anchor on the starboard side is stripped and will not tighten down. I'd appreciate advice and recommendations WRT the best approach to repairing it. Looking for recommendations for specific adhesives and methods to repair it (must it be filled, drilled, tapped?). Can it just be epoxied in place? There are a total of four screws, three of which seem to be anchored just fine, across a span of about 10 inches, only one of them needs to be repaired.
Thanks!
