I am looking for the black plastic deck line mounts for a 10 year old NDK Explorer, the recesses are elliptical.

Is it painted?
Have you painted it already or are you just planning ahead?



Good luck finding the fittings.

#3

Try these folks
I am not sure if they have the RDF’s, but have been NDK/NDSK dealers long enough there’s a decent chance.

fittings…
I think your best action would be get in touch with a dealer, a lot of shops routinely strip old boats of hardware. you might have to go to 2-3-4 shops to collect enough parts. This is assuming a dealer cannot get you parts from the manufacturer. Try contacting shops that advertise online.

They’re not VCP, are they?
Do they look like this, by any chance?

Are you lookin’ for look or . . .
. . . functionality? I have a Eddyline Nighthawk 16 that had some halfassed plastic fitting that kept breakin’. I replaced them with looped nylon webing with a stainless screw and finish washer. You can make 1, 2, 3 or 4 loops. Never had one of 'em break.
