depends on the boat.
we do this mod alot as its required for the bermuda race from here
many steps have a provision for fasteneing, so tell us your spar brand. I can't call off what is in the bristol 35.5 but it might be metalmast, with the stainless outside shoe step, so you can drill and tap right through it all with maybe 4 1/4"-20 screws
we have made angle brakets, through bolts, screwd em down and even used turnbuckles to eyenuts on keel bolts, get us a photo of the area and someone here can make a plan for you
