I already have 2 pairs on my boat but I want to install another pair between the 2 side each side. Please email me at pchen621@yahoo.com if you have a pair for sale.

Make sure the surfaced underneath where you're going to install them is strong enough to spread the load. There's usually a backing panel or significantly beefed up fiberglass behind a cleat. You should not just drill two holes and bolt it into place without something to spread the stress. Otherwise someone at a later date might assume it's a properly install cleat but then become seriously injured when it gets yanked out under stress.

Awesome point had no idea! I was actually thinking of doing the same to my boat.
