seacocks have mounting holes for through bolting but this doesn't make sense to me on a fiberglass install. 1- any impact would pull the head of the fasteners through the hull. Even with the blocking. 2-you have more exposed metal [the heads of the fasteners] with very little surface area in the water , and 3-you have addittional holes in your boat.
Am I missing something?
It seems to me a better install would be to have the the blocking bonded to the hull with fiberglass and then have the seacock mechanically fastened to that. Any opinions on this?
