I don’t envy you having to drill into that new paint job.

Looks great, nicely done. Don't forget to chamfer all the holes you drill it will help stop paint and gel spider cracks. The bilge looks great.

Thanks, I'll hit them with the carbide burr to chamfer them!

Finished up the front cleats today.. They might not look even in the pics, but I measured 78 times and pilot drilled 9. I made up neoprene gaskets and polyurethane sealed them to the deck.
