Sealing access hatches - what to use?

Glad they had the thickness you need. I use that stuff to drape over the side of the boat to protect it from crab trap damage and keep the trap woven stainless wire from get hung up on the cleat. When we put high-end stainless rod holders on the rigger booms one of my buddies who is a great fabricator, drilled and tapped them for a stainless set screw bolt to keep the holders from ever spinning on the boom. You do have to be careful because if you do it wrong, it can interfere with the extension boom fully collapsing down back inside the primary boom tube.
Sent you a PM re. how to and where to drill holes on the downrigger boom. Thinking of doing this myself and not sure how.
