Paul,
Did you use 1" or 1-1/4" mast track?

Just now finishing up my installation of a track on the mast for a whisker
pole.
I used SS 1/4 inch 20 thread bolts that were 3/4 inch long. For that size
bolt, use a #7 drill, then tap with 1/4-20, apply Tefgel and screw in.
Worked fine.

I drilled and tapped the holes for the appropriate sized flat head
machine screw (as I recall, it was a 5/16" fine thread, 3/4"long
machine screw (NOT a sheet metal screw!!))
