I own a Sparrow class fibreglass dinghy that I'm in the process of refurbishing.
I need replace three (?) flanges (?) eyelets through which I pass the mast rigging and secure with a spring loaded pin. They're diamond shaped, plastic and are screwed in place on either side of a hole the size of a 20 cent piece. Problem is - I have no idea what they are actually called.


I'd post a photo but I'm too new to these forums.


Would appreciate any help...
