Just buy a pre-fab hole

If drilling holes in your boat makes you nervous, just buy some pre-fab holes and install those :-)

Reminds me of when I went to a local hardware store and the teenage clerk asked if I needed help. I said, "yes, where do you keep your holes?" The clerk said ".... what?". "I need some holes", I said. "Where do you stock your holes?

The kid wasn't sure what to say or do, so I let him off the hook. "Never mind", I said. "I'll buy one of your drill bits and make them myself."

My 13 year old daughter was with me. As we walked out the door, she said "Oh my gosh, DAD! How embarrassing is that! Please don't ever do that again when I'm standing next to you!"... or something to that affect. Made it all worth while :-)
