I wonder where these can be bought/ fabricated, and where exactly are they placed on the bulwark ie distance from the stern.
Stewart,
Are you looking for teak blocks or regular metal blocks?
Assuming teak, there are a few good options, though they are quite expensive:

Arthur Daphinee’s business is wonderful, and they’re products very well made. If I were to buy blocks, I would choose them just to support a small generational business (still made in their backyard garage.)
Best,
