My approach to gear hammocks was simply to add wing nuts to some of the deck hardware bolts that were already there in about the right place.. I had search without results for apparently non-existent "eyes with threads, not bolts" The wing nuts gave me enough to tie the hammock lines too. This fix has not yet stood the test of time and heavy loads. Perhaps, also, I was lucky to have usable bolt locations, courtesy of some previous owner installed deck gear. I'm not making any holes that I can creatively avoid! And, that has me thinking of adding one high, tight to the cabin roof, and? well forward just to store PFDs. Has anyone tried anything like that? My respect (and fear of removal) for 5200 continues to grow!

Where did you hang them? What I mean is that I purchased the commercial hooks Defender sells for hammocks. Since there is no wood in the cabin, the only alternative I can see is to drill holes and through bolt them under the decks port and starboard. If you have some ideas, I am open to all possibilities.
