Gentlemen, I leaned back in the captain's chair and 4 screws came out of the pedestal base as the chair went back. I've never had this happen before. It has a fiberglass floor with no access to it from below. I have not looked at it closely yet due to the rain. I'll use my flexible pencil camera to see if I can look into the screw holes. Thanks in advance for any solutions.

Thank you very much. I'll give it a shot. I was going to holesaw cut an opening under the pedestal if needed to install new cleated nuts.
 
Captain's chair pedestal base is fixed. I replaced the 1//4 self tapping screws with the same thread SS 1/2" longer screw and screwed them right into the floor nuts. The floor is solid and seat is tight to the floor. Thanks for the help...New cleats were not needed.
