Thanks. I followed CLC directions, mounting with thickened epoxy (MAS). They claim "Carefully bonded, you will tear the deck off your kayak before these eyestraps will come loose. We've tried." Possible advertising hyperbole there so the skeptic in me tried to pull them off and could not. I will admit that I had not considered the possibility of the strap shattering if hit with a sharp object.
