My rig uses Hobie 18 tramp rails on the sides but must use the fore and aft beams or akas to attach the tramp ends...which is grommeted.

I would like to not have to "lace" it up to the beams but the line on the beam and "clip" the ends to the line on the beams...any inexpensive suggestions? I need 44 clips and keep it low cost.

Are there alternatives to stainless steel carabiners, etc, even Nylon?

Yeah I haven't a single clue what you are asking. Maybe try to describe it in a different manner?

Lacing is by far the cheapest and most reliable option. Are you familiar with the buttons used on Nacra rear beams? Let's you lace faster and not have to go all the way around the beam.

I'm not aware of anything but a stainless steel hook or Hank that would be up to the task. I'm not sure how on earth you would be able to tension it properly with hooks on each end.

You need some way to add tension to your tramp
it effects your cat's overall stiffness (and a loose and floppy boat is not good)
