First post, great site. Hello all!


Take looksie at these pic.s.
I feel the need to replace the four drain thru hulls. These two pic.s are of the floor drains. Any advice on re installation of new thru hulls? What holds them tight to the hull? Adhesive only it appears. There is NO ROOM for the backing nut!? The pic. with the nut is an example of the other two.

The radius where the floor meets the transom is mighty close to where the thru hull comes in... little to no clearance for the backing nut...

Advice and Help on how I can "set" these in to stay ... .

Have a safe weekend - Chris
