A boats hardware system-especially, although not exclusively designed for pleasure boating-involves massive clamping parts fashioned from a plastic, which is light enough to float. The parts are shaped and proportioned to fit over and be clamped to a rail of a boat. Clamping is preferably accomplished by large head nuts which may be fully tightened responsive to finger pressure. A rubber or other friction forming plug or screw head may be used to increase the friction or immobilize the clamp on the boat rail so that it will not turn about the rail. For convenience of description the term "anti-torque" is used hereinafter to mean this non-turning immobilization. The various parts may be used together in different combinations to make a system which easily fits into place, even when bulky items are installed by one person. An important advantage of the invention is its ability to be mounted on a boat without requiring either an undue amount of time or any special tools.
