I'm willing to bet that the rails are stainless and the fittings are pot metal. They (the fittings) tend to get eaten alive in salt water. Best thing you can do is buy new stainless fittings..... certainly not cheap, but will last you a long time and in the final analisis, will be much cheaper than replacing them with more pot metal fittings every few years.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
