I got mine from Cabela's and I must say they are of excellent quality. My boat is aluminum so not sure how much this will help. I used lock washers and nuts to fasten the rails down and they are pretty darn stout! On a glass boat backing is a superb idea. I would be a little leery of the set up on glass with no backing or nuts n washers.
PS- if using downeasters on the rails do yourself a favor and throw out the flimsy little rubber strips and go to the hardware store and pick up some clear vinyl(I think) tubing. Slit it, then wrap it around the rail, then tighten down your rod holders. They wont move on ya even trolling the heaviest of hitters!
