I used this bracket: https://www.homedepot.com/Tools-Hardware-Hardware-Fasteners-Metal-Stock/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xh7Zar1m/R-100337462/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053

Cut 3 small pieces for each side about 8 inches long and bolted 1/4" bolts with washers/locknuts into gunwhale. It is very secure.
So I have 6 bolts per side into gunwhale and 3 bolts on deck into bracket.
