Expert Reply:
The hardware for the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratchet Transom Tie-Downs # IMF14256 is sufficient from the manufacturer. The biggest issue when mounting them is the bolts being over torqued or reused. It is important to use Anti-Seize # LT37616 to achieve the proper torque and allow you to remove the bolts in the future. The previous issues of incorrect bolt sizes has been corrected as we have not see any issues with that is some time now.
