      Don't know what the worry is. You send back the artr... And you get a new artr. I would think you get a complete replacement. Or you get some practice working with small tools and nuts.... (if this is your first time) and figure out how everyone else installs them. Just a little patience...

        I guess you have never worked on a boat before. Even in real life working on 40'+ boats There are places where I would have to create a tool to get somewhere, or blindly install a backer plate to mount equipment. Why couldnt you epoxy an aluminum plate in, then drill and tap it for the stingers.

        Guess "Caveat Emptor" should be heeded when dealing with overseas retailers.....

So the more custom the boat the better.
                  There is a 60'' FC hull, no 57'' But they don't come with stingers mounted.....

                    The plates for the stingers are threaded 3mm on the inside of the hull. Tight spot but, not that difficult to deal with.

                    My favorite tool for tight spots is Stick Tack. I put a wee dab on the end of my finger and then the bolt sticks to it. Comes off after tightened down. Add a stick or coat hanger and you are McGiver.

                                ?? If you got a rtr then why would you have to install stingers? Are you saying that the boat you got didn't have the stingers already installed?
