I used West Marine to see the breadth of styles possible for cleats. That'll give you an idea of what possibilities there are and then you can buy from wherever. One thing that got me in trouble - make sure to measure anywhere you plan to mount it. I bought one to mount on my gunwale that took 4 bolts and my gunwale was too thin to get all 4 bolts in it.

I assume you are placing them on each of the transom corner plates (whatever those are called) and the bow plate. Use as big a backer plate as you can get away with.
