Source of Painter Rings?

[ColinRowntree]

Hi all. I'm considering putting painter rings on fore and aft decks of my OT for practical reasons. Anyone know of a source for these? Brass or bronze with both the ring and hardware to fasten it through the decks would be great.

Here's a photo of someone else's canoe for reference of what I'm looking for:

This looks like a standard eye bolt with a ring. Both of these should be available from any good hardware store. A similar one is also available from Island Falls canoe at the link below. Good luck,

Benson

Thanks Benson. Yep. I already have a call in to them on a stem band and some screws so will talk to him when he gets back to me.
