Countersinking hull floor

Post by Tim McCarthy »

G'day Gentlemen
Have finally closed all gaps on my hull (as per my last post).
Thanks for the advice.
Next question should you countersink the holes in the hull floor Part# CEO153? All of them or just the front and rear?
Any advice would again be most helpful.
Thanks
Tim

Hi Tim, when I was building my mid prod tiger nearly five years ago, I decide to countersink all the floorpan bolts, a labour of love, but well worth the effort, because it leaves a relatively smooth bottom which is less likely to catch leaves twigs etc underneath whilst you are running the tank. Go for it! ROBIN.
