Beckson Hatch Install on Kaholo

Finally getting close to finishing up my paddleboard.  Quick question -- what is the preferred method for securing a beckson hatch to the deck (going to use the hatch and bag for a bit of storage)?  Stainless bolts and nuts?  Thinking screws aren't going to cut it on the thin plywood.

Yup, stainless bolts and nuts are the way to go.

   I just used silicone without any fasteners. It has been good for 3 seasons now. I like the stainless though.

   If you drill into the deck be sure to seal any exposed fiberglass or wood with epoxy. Use the drill, fill, and drill technique.
