So far all I could find is this...

Any ideas?

They're just handles for lifting hatches etc, very much doubt they could take any kind of stress. My boat had recessed tie down points, they just stayed full of manky green water all the time, they're gone now.

Never heard of tie down points on a boat
However, if you do a search on "pop up cleats" or " flush deck fittings"
you will find loads of them.
