Can say the Grizz has some good features like the track system and the 2 pre installed seat bases but lacks 2 more left and right of center on the rear bench seat for driving the boat, the deal breaker for me is the weight, my g3 1548's weight is 360lbs as compared to 587 lbs(+227) for the...

Would need to be welded for the best results, like Johnny said for a while you could get by with a backup plate on the inside of some sort, get a piece .125 / 1/8'' alum rivet or bolt it with some s.s. 10x32 screws 2'' on center, bolts can be replaced with rivets at a later date,,.first drill...

what size holes?? if someone put a threw the hull fitting in the bottom of the boat like they did mine I would take it to a weld shop and pay them the 50 bucks to have it fixed right, j b weld is good stuff for some things but once you use it makes it very hard to weld with out a lot of work of...
