Bill, The cleats were manufactured by Barton. They are made with nylon and are the 200mm size. The track that they slide onto was custom made from aluminum and are anodized. They are screwed to the toerail using the original hole spacing so no additional holes were needed. It is not possible to add additional fasteners at the same spacing of the toerail as someone suggested. The curved shape of the toerail will not permit a longer track to be used and would cause interference between the track and the toerail. You would not be able to install or remove the cleat after the track is bolted in place. Ted Drossos C&C 110Lady in RedBay Shore, NY

Ted, Could you provide info on parts you used? What material did you use as base for track? I assume replace two of the toe rail machine screws with proper length. Love this idea.
