Eric: Every H-16 comp tip halyard hook I've ever seen was mounted with stainless steel machine screws....not rivets. Not exactly sure of the size (M. Miller at Hobie could probably tell you), but I'm guessing something like 3/16" by 1". If you've buggered up the holes with rivets/casings, you might need to refill with epoxy/fiberglass strand and re-drill pilot holes. JB Weld would probably even work.
