[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 402696, member: 6937"] I also concur that 3M 5200 is the best bet for a secure bond between the fiberglass and aluminum hull. It has outstanding adhesion properties, and once it is cured, it's a nearly indestructible bond. Due to differing flex and expansion properties of these 2, simply glassing it won't work. Some adhesives may also not work over a long term period from constant vibration, hitting chop, etc. Another thing to remember....proper reinforcement of the cut-out in the hull of the boat, as well as the flange of the fiberglass, will guarantee integrity of the boat over the long term.
