Fred,
I checked the drawings for the 34 and see the baby stay is far in front of the
keel. I suspect the bolt should be attached to a stringer also.

That's how it is on my 34R. On my boat they welded a stainless stud to a
stainless bracket that is thru bolted to a stringer. A short piece of rod
carries the load from the track down to the hull stringer.
I suggest you pull up the floor around the hole and look in there?
