Jay-
G. Maroske is credited with originating that style of deck fitting, and his name is usually attached...
Description from Maroske is at http://www.studiofurniture.com/diary/kayak/outfit/moroske/

For variants on the theme:
Try a search (here, using the 'Search' link at the top left with Maroske as the search string, OR using Google with the search terms site:kayakforum.com Maroske OR just Google Maroske fittings )

BTW, I've only used Maroske fittings on one boat. My advice would be to make the 'tube size' bigger than you might initially guess. The big limitation of Maroske fittings IMO is that they don't easily accommodate multiple lines, and it's tough to vary your arrangement of deck lines and bungees. Deck perimeter (safety) lines looking for attachment spots aren't a happy situation!
