: You should be able to order the foot pedals with the mounting studs
: included without extra charge as SeaLect sells them in different
: combinations. Mine are $34 with studs, not to self promote, just
: to let poeple know that dealers can order foot pedals with studs
: for almost same price as through hull, so you should not be
: paying that much extra for studs as a seperate kit.

That's a really good price on those braces.

I put in Yakimas, but ordered the SS studs from McMaster-Carr, epoxied to the inside hull.

I measured where I wanted placement, but didn't glue them in until after I joined the halves - the studs fall near the seam, and I wanted that 'extra' FG for strength.
