We started in the early morning and positioned the pod behind the boat. We put big wooden blocks underneath it to hold it in place and then put two normal screws to prevent it from slipping. Then dad drilled big holes to accommodate our nine stainless screws (each half-inch thickness and 3-inches long or 13 mm diameter and 75 mm long).
Epoxy glue and wood flour and silicon filler were then mixed together and spread over the backside of the boat and onto the motor pod. Then the two were glued together and held in place by the screws. The final result looks beautiful.
