Hi

I am in need of countersunk base plate screws for a foil (to go into a US fin box). Does anyone know where you can buy them from? I think they are M6. North don't seem to sell them without a board!

Cheers

Any industrial bolts and fastener supply place will have them.

If you are talking about the Brass T-nut, it looks like it is an M8 from Chinook.

Stuart Bell sails is the importer for Australia. Their website sucks but if you are in WA, pop in the store in Nedlands, John is a nice bloke:

I have found in recent years that yachting shops and industrial fastener shops don't stock many marine grade screws and sizes. I have had much more luck with ebay.

Yacht grot in Fremantle would definitely be worth a try
