    I finally got the nerve up to drill the hole in the rear deck for the bump board holder....it's a close fit for sure....but I'm glad I did it!!!! Thanks Carol from C & O....

    For some reason it was more scarier cuttin into my Stratos this time, then cutting a recessed tray in my previous Triton....go figure...

    I recommend using a corded drill too.....my 18volt drill couldnt hang with the task, so I had to switch to a real drill.....

    The little bit of water that would get through the cracks would just drain down into the bilge compartment. It would be the same for the water that runs into the floor drain.

    The gas tank on his goes to about the edge of the seat. Yours might be the same KutTail.
