The ones I was using was 1/2 inch rubber inserts with 3/8 bolts.

I checked a few other forums and decided to go in a different direction than the rubber inserts. I bought some heavy duty toggle bolts from Lowes, the kind that are spring loaded and open up after you push them in. I cut off the tops off of the old rubber inserts to keep them between the bracket and boat and inserted the toggles in. I had to redrill the holes in the boat to 3/4 inch. It seems to be a good fix, but I won't know until I start banging the boat around and see if they hold.
