Installing Footbraces without Drilling Through Hul

I saw several boats at R2K with Keeper footbraces without holes drilled through the hull. I believe most of these had wooden blocks epoxied inside the hull.

Would anyone like to advise me on the details (size of blocks, connecting Keepers to blocks, positioning blocks).

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a great idea (NT)
