Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos

I purchased some used bow step cushions (supposedly original) and they have several snaps on them
Can anyone tell me where I should mount (glue) the male snaps on the boat or post a pic?

Thanks

If OEM, and have flaps, they are attached to the face of the step. The male snap have a screw.

I would not attempt glue. Drill a small pilot hole, dab a little marine sealant, not adhesive, on the underside of the screw head (top of the threads) and then install. Wipe off excess sealant.

Here is a photo of Joe's Outrage 20 with cushions:

The snaps come in several sizes so check the cushions.
