How 'bout this-two holes, one on each side of the middle of the coaming, under the lip, through which you'd pass a cable with a double loop which you would secure to the rack bars. This way you could use a cockpit cover effectively-dry and secure. You'd have to use a small diameter cable and find some way to reinforce the coaming lip around the holes. To seal the holes when on the water you could use rubber stoppers, washers, bolts and wing nuts to cobble up some stoppers ala motor boat transoms.-Greg
