The black square plastic bit that you can see behind the frame usually unbolts and comes apart, with a round recess for an a-frame tube to go into. You offer it up, then bolt the plastic square together again, and should be secure.

Hi Biggles,
that one does indeed fit onto A frame but the imendsion is normally only 1" or 1.5"
there are much better ones about.
re the light, I had those on a coded boat and they were shocking, they fall outof the flimsy plastic holder and basically light so when if you need them they are either knackered or flat.
If you are not coding the light is not needed and to be frank I wouldn't bother I would attach a lifejacket light (crewsaver do some excellent ones) and they will work as they only go off when you pull the pin, Ocean safety also do an excllent system a bit more pricey.
Ifyou go for a better one it will have reflective tape, possibly a line and be attached via a simple box to A frame and wire clip /bungee.

Nick, if you want a lifejacket light to attach to it I've got one here that's out of date but working fine. I bought a whole load of them a few months back.

Hello Biggles, Union Chandlery in Cork Ireland (on line web) have same with SS frames. I suggest that you also consider Bungee straps to make sure you do not lose or light duty Cable ties as one hopes not to have to use nor lose same. I always keep cable ties on the boat of all gauges. They do not rust and they are great for quick fix.
