We offer high-quality marine hardware suitable for
interior and exterior applications on boat doors, cabinets and hatches. Our
flush-mount Southco and GemLux slam latches are stylish, easy to install, and tough. And they're
available in both polycarbonate and electro-polished #316 stainless steel at
prices well below what you'd pay for the identical products in any retail outlet
I've seen (speaking of which, if you want big savings on a decent Attwood
polyethylene slam latch, see our Specials
Page). We also offer a selection of marine plastic and #316 electro-polished
stainless steel hinges, along with #304 stainless steel piano hinges in
three-foot and six-foot lengths.
And we've designed a selection of
products made with King Starboard -- an amazingly tough marine plastic that's
impervious to ultraviolet rays, rain, salt water and all that kind of stuff.
These include storage brackets for swim and dive ladders, boat hooks, gaff hooks
and the like, as well as product-specific and universal rail mounts --
all backed by our (for details,

We designed these King Starboard mounting blocks for a customer who
wanted to mount his Taco rod holders on a T-top rail -- and now we're
offering them as a stock item.
Each King Starboard mounting block is a precision-machined oval measuring 3" long and
1.5"
wide at the widest point, pre-drilled for the Taco hardware (part #
F16-2700). Starboard is a very tough marine plastic that's far superior to
the injected molded plastics that are typically found in the marketplace.

I have an Armstrong swim ladder on my own boat, and I love the thing. But
what I hate are the crappy injection-molded plastic storage brackets
that go brittle in the sun and then just...break.
So I designed my own replacement brackets using 3/4" King Starboard,
an extremely long-lived marine plastic. They
hold the ladder in place nice and snug, and considering Starboard's
excellent UV resistance, I expect they'll last a good long time. If I'm
wrong and they don't last at least one year on your own boat, just return
them with proof of purchase and I'll send you new ones at no charge.
Each bracket is pre-drilled for easy mounting, and all exposed edges have
a smooth radius. Overall length is 4", height is 2.5", and thickness is
.75". Fits any 2" diameter tube.
We originally made these King Starboard brackets for a customer who had
some big -- 3" diameter -- tubing he needed to secure some table
pedestals on his boat. So I
decided to put 'em up on the site, in case someone else out there needs
something similar.
Actually, I can think of several mounting bracket possibilities, for
things like gaff hooks, boat hooks, push poles for flats boats. If you're
looking for something along these lines as well, drop me an
email and let me know what you need and we'll see what we can do.
These particular brackets are pre-drilled for easy mounting, and all exposed edges have
a smooth radius. Overall length is 6", height is 4", and thickness is
.75". Fits any 3" diameter tube.
