    Thank you, didn’t want to break the seal by removing one to take to the hardware store.

    Brass lock nuts and SS bolts and washers are the best for this application.

    ok, going to install an All Aboard ladder I took off the other boat before I sold it. I have enough thread on the bolts I don’t need to remove the factory nuts.

    If I remember correctly my friends Yamaha had metric bolts. M12s are .472 in diameter, easily mistaken for 1/2 -20s

    I sold my Charger with the Yamaha, but my new Charger has a Honda. They could be metric also. Looks like I should grab a couple of each. Thanks

    I remember have A heck of a time finding the correct bolts when I put my All Aboard Ladder on. Ended up finding them finding them at an oilfield supply store.
    Don't worry Ma'am....
