Hey looking for a stantion for a recessed bowrail on a1979 Potter. Anyone know where I can pic up one the set screw that holds the bowrail stripped out and I need a new one. Any help would be great!!

I haven't done it, but can you tap out the hole one size larger and put in a larger set screw? You likely wouldn't have to remove it (but I'm not sure on that) and the price of the drill, tap, t handle and set screw would not be that much. If you pulled it off the boat a machine shop could do it or if you found the right guy they could do it in the parking lot while you wait with the stantion on the boat.

Thanks T I will give it a shot. I will look for a tap and die set for stainless. Appreciate the info.
