Location: Burlington, WI | If you counter sink the holes through the gel coat the gel coat won't chip. On my boat I have 3 RAM mounts and a GPS puck. For all of the RAM mounts I use neoprene or rubber washers between the boat and the RAM mount. The washers are approximately the same size as the mount. I also used stainless lock nuts and bolts to fasten everything down. I haven't had a problem with any water getting through to the inside of the boat, and everything has stayed tight since I've put them on.
Good luck |
