It is amazing stainless tracks aren't commonly available.

I may leave the hinges I already have installed but reinforce the way they are mounted. I was planning to replace my rub rail. While I have it off I could install reinforcing stainless plates threaded or with nuts underneath the deck. Another option is to use small wood blocks. It would require cutting into the edge of the gunwale but it could be fiberglassed and would be covered by the new rubrail.

Thoughts from the group?
