I was hoping we could maybe use the next size bigger self tappin screw, otherwise it might be a chore removing the the inner panels to get to the bottom of the gunnels in order to use a bolt and nut faster.

Nope, bad idea. Fill the holes and put straps on the cover - or buy one with the straps.


He paid $666 for that snap on cover. Now you want he should put straps
on it? He might as well have invested in a $20 tarp.

The issue as I understand it, is that he also has a spray
dodger/enclosure that uses the same snaps. Spray dodgers are common
in northern climes, especially on smaller open boats. They can make
it possible to go boating in conditions that would otherwise be wet,
cold and miserable.
