7/8" or 1" rails?

I'll add 7/8" 90degree Tees and Round Bases to the list.

Anyone need 1" Tees/bases?

I would assume mine are 7/8... Don't think they are an inch... I need to go out to see.

Do you know if the stanchion base bolt hole pattern lines up with the originals?  I tried West Marine and a few local ship stores and never found any that matched.  Figured I would have to fill in the old holes with epoxy and drill new ones.

I don't have any of the round bases in stock, so I'll get some in and check ...

The 60-degree Tees (Left and Right) measure out to be an exact replacement for the F32's rail Tees, with 1-3/8" between the set screw holes. I plan to replace the set screws with stainless steel 1/8" rivets to match the orginal holes in the F32's rails.

They sent the bolt circle measurements on the round base, but I'm waiting for a sample part to verify angles ...
