007 Deck Hardware

[dsherod]

I'm considering doing the flush mounting hardware thing on my 23CC, i.e. cleats and nav lights. The SeaCraft with the recessed handrail and no bow rail seems the perfect candidate to get the flush deck treatment. I'd like to hear your experiences and the hardware choices you have made. The kind of cutting and fitting this requires, I'd like to have the best chance at choosing products that are of a quality that are going to last and remain on the market should repair or replacement be necessary.

TACO would seem to be the obvious choice for retractable cleats, but the bow lights are a little harder to come by. I have seen one unit made by Hella, a reputable manufacturer, but I've only found them available in the UK. It would be nice to combine flush with LED if possible.

Light me up.
