Identify/name this piece of hardware

[JJF]

Bear with me, this might be hard to explain....

The spray curtains on my boat fasten to the t-top via curtain track, fasten to the gunel via a clasp into a loop and to the deck via a thing-a-ma-jig. The thing-a-ma-jig is where my suggestion lies. The think-a-ma-jig is a male fitting (post) with a clam cleat (see picture below) on a strap coming from the spray curtain that is inserted into a female fitting (flush mounted stainless hole) in the deck.

What is the name of this fitting (pictured) and the receiver/socket in the deck (not pictured)?

Is this a Grady curtain or aftermarket? Maybe send this image to a boat canvas shop for their input?

It's a factory curtain. I may have to reach out to GW.

The big end is called a cam buckle or a strap buckle but I haven't seen one with that stub. The web site Strapworks has all kinds od hardware but I couldn't find a buckle with any sort of leg for mounting. I assume there is a plate of some sort that the stub slides into and locks. I think you have a big challenge on your hands finding a replacement.

My guess is that GW has it.

Do you need the buckle or the track? Could you convert it to this style?

I am looking for the buckle. It would be the buckle that is found at the bottom corner(s) of the spray curtains.

I have an email out to GW.

Good luck

If no luck, try A&J Canvas in Vanceboro NC. They make the enclosures for GW.

GW was kind enough to provide the supplier...

That's not the part. I take it that there are flush mounted plates of some kind, possibly on the deck, that have a slit in them that allows the stub end of the cam lock buckle to be inserted and slid into place. The tension on the strap keeps everything in place. .
On myotherboat there were straps with snap hooks that clipped onto a raised eye strap brackets. After stubbing my toes about a thousand times, I removed the eye straps and let the canvas flap. The following ring can be used with the clip type of strap hardware but unless you cut out a recess, it will sit proud of the deck.

It's the part. The link is taking you to the "kit".

Nice that they hooked you up. GW Cust Service is very solid...

Hi,

Yep.

I don't need the part. I have both for my existing curtains, but I am thinking of making some custom items and may want to use this hardware.

You are correct. I apologize for my bad info.

No worries. It's all good.
