[QUOTE="S.E.R.E.NITY NOW, post: 513247, member: 35499"] Hello, I'm working on putting together a 2022 Smokercraft Alaskan 13 DLX and I'm putting a bow mounted trolling motor on it. I had to make a bow plate to accommodate this but I'm unsure what the best way to mount it to the gunnel would be? Rivets? Drill and tap? Through bolts? I don't exactly know how the gunnel is shaped inside so I'm trying to avoid going all the way through it. There will be a piece of 2" angle on the outer edge going all the way across to stiffen and support that edge. I figured rivets would be ok to mount the plate to that piece. [/QUOTE]
