Bit went about 1/2 an inch, then stopped, then went through a second layer. For a second, I thought I had drilled through the bottom of the boat!!!!?

Wait till you get ready to put speakers in one and have to drill 4 six inch holes in the pretty gel!

my old skeeter looks like its been shot with bird shot,but still fishes like a brand new one.
That first hole is tough, then it's smooth sailing! The more holes the better! The newness eventually wears off, lol. When I first got my Skeeter, I used to be scared to death, even running on a stump. Now, it doesn't matter, lol. Can't keep it in the garage forever!
Hope you got the new style of them things, if not you are going to be cussing them!!!
I would have drilled them holes for ya, don't bother me a bit to drill holes in your boat!!!:Rofl
What is the difference between new style and old style. Did not know there was such a thing....,Quote:

The bases, threads are different where it tightens up. If you have trouble they will replace the bases, I have the contact info if you need it but it was like pulling eye teeth to get them fixed. Sold em and went a different route. I really like the idea and if you got the right ones you will love em.
Nothin to it. Rigged 100's of boats. No telling the number of holes I've drilled in brand new boats. All in the right places of course. Lol

What really hurts is when you get them wrong the first time, and have to drill more! My old Carolina Skiff has holes all over the place, filled with silicone.. So far, it still floats!
