I use Rigging Only (in MA) for lifelines, sheets, halyards, and the like. They will know what size you need for the pelican hook.

I suppose I could probably check on my boat next time I'm there : ) Thanks so much to everyone for all the insight and advice so far!

Secure them with a machine screw. They look like the cap on the picture you linked to. From there, you can build a wire with pelican hooks on each end. Done. If you want to save a few bucks, swage a thimble eye on one end instead of a pelican hook. -- Dennis C.

The gate is constantly coming undone and is a liability. Here are some photos: Gate <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fRcKebayCNvEiDFVWWjbdfrt_4wcxdK-/view?usp=sharing> Hinge <https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fV6FmLL-ppL3BEcSUG7pSUTCedL6-eF_&authuser=andrew%40transom.design&usp=drive_fs> Latch? <https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fXCmVrk_9rxlFYqObzWMqXiQb0JX-wCI&authuser=andrew%40transom.design&usp=drive_fs> The clumsily attached hinge and “latch” that isn’t really a latch make me think it was added with the stern ladder. I want to replace it with something like a wire gate, but I can't find the right fittings. This photo <https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fSeoacTbteuikJRY6Zl312LxYeLf9PIP&authuser=andrew%40transom.design&usp=drive_fs> for a reference of what I was thinking for the bar ends (which I would then attach a traditional wire gate to) but I wanted to get other folks’ opinions and see how they did it. How have other folks solved this issue? Andrew _______________________________________________ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.
