Based in Greece, most town / marina berths are ‘stern to’. I’d like to simplify solo sailing (and ST berthing generally) by adding both Pt & Sbd cleats, easily accessible from the transom.
Would anyone know where these can be fixed to the <2005 43DS hull, without concerns over the strength of the location.
Views most welcome :-)

Generally, you want areas of hull/deck overlap that you can access to attach small backing plates and nuts. Then pick a site on this overlap band that stays clear of existing deck gear like pushpits and turning blocks. Their underdeck attachment points can give you a guide to reinforced deck areas when viewed from below deck.
