Strip: Install Foot rests

Hi All,
I'm 'getting there' with my North Star build and was wondering what combined wisdom was with regard to installing foot rests. Have a set of Yakima footrests and imagine just reinforce the area with glass layers and bolt in. Did I see somewhere that people also mount a piece of wood inside the hull so then the bolts don't pierce the hull?..
Thanks for any suggestions.
Pat
