HOW TO: Drill Fiberglass and Install Thru-Hull Fittings
Posted by Jason on Mar, 22 2011
If the thought of drilling a hole in the bottom of your boat conjures images like the one above, you’re not alone. We sell a lot of automated ballast systems and ballast systems components, so it’s no surprise that we hear from a lot of customers that are uncomfortable with the idea of drilling one (or more) rather large holes through the bottom of their boat.
We figured it would be beneficial to post a little how-to that outlines the process of drilling through the fiberglass hull of the boat, and then installing the thru-hull fitting. This article is specific to an intake for a ballast system, but the same procedure can be applied for any hardware that is installed in the boat’s hull. Alright, let’s get on with it!

PRICE DROP ALERT: Jabsco Green Nitrile Impellers
Posted by Jason on Jan, 16 2011
