Port side mount. A void needs to be created in the foam behind the mounting eye. This needs to be filled with thickened epoxy, then drilled and 3/8 SS concrete anchors installed to hold the eye pad. Roughly a 4-5 circle will do. Be carefull with the placement of the forward anchor hole as it is very close to the wet locker inner liner in the head. I put tefgel on the treads of the anchor bolt and epoxyed them into their drill-holes for added security. On the starboard side the eye pad can be thru bolted with a backing plate after the foam is cleaned out and the void filled with thickened epoxy, same 4-5 circle applies.

Starboard eye-pad with 2spd mainsheet. This is how I store the traveller and mainsheet to clear the cockpit when at anchor.
