Kito how thick is your fiberglass.....if you use screws to fasten with you run the risk of the screws wallowing out in the holes over time from stress.... if you through bolt you have toggled it to both outside and inside of the cabin top and gained 10 to 20 times the holding strength and enhanced the sheer strength "your boat your choice" as has been said by some on here ...just something to think about
Woodster, I just measured the thickness of the cabin top this morning by removing the trim ring at my dorade air cowl inlet. I was incorrect on my measurements earlier. It measures a little over 1.25 inches thick from top of roof to inside of liner. Looks like 1/2" fiberglass top with 3/4" plywood core. I don't know if this is typical on all Cherubini's or they just took a little extra time on this one. Anyway, I am pleased to see this. No wonder my deck is still rock solid.
