[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 407781, member: 15636"] Here's one I did years ago ... https://forum.tinboats.net/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=36465 ... but what I did NOT detail in the pictures included is that whenever you use a SS bolt on aluminum hulls, you MUST totally isolate the SS from the aluminum. I put thick nylon washers under the heads and Ss washers on each end of the bolt and covered the bolt body with adhesive-lined heatshrink. SS against aluminum will cause galvanic corrosion, where the aluminum will pit and be 'sacrificed' due to the dis-similar metals. [/QUOTE]
