Drilling Holes
CAUTION:
Always wear safety goggles and a dust mask when drilling.
1. Drill a 1/8" (3 mm) pilot hole perpendicular to the water line from inside the
hull (see Figure 2-9 ).
If there is a rib or strut near the mounting location, drill from the outside.
If the pilot hole is drilled in the wrong location, drill a second hole in a better
location. Apply masking tape to the outside of the hull over the incorrect hole
and fill it with epoxy.
