I installed this kicker bracket/swim step that I had fabricated

Drilled my layout for bolts, then overdrilled for my thickened epoxy plug.

taped the outside of the main bolt holes and drilled relief holes above, angled down

made epoxy reservoirs for the inside, so that they fill to a level above the relief hols on the outside

reservoirs

Peeled off the tape on the reservoir, chiseled it flat (I\'m a good chisel guy. If you aren\'t a good chisel guy maybe use a sanding block)

outside ready for faring and bolts

inside ready for faring and bolts *
