Does anyone have a recomended glue for sticking down patches and fittings on
an older avon inflatable. ( its a 9ft, inflates in two halves,has a part
wooden board bottom that comes out and is three boards on a single timber
runner.) Im also hoping to discover what the best varnish would be to touch
up the boards.

I also need to drill holes in my Shetland transome to bolt the outboard on,
mainly for security but also for stability. Is there an altertative to the
expensive bolts that are sold in Chandlers, surely any stainless steel bolt
would be oK in seawater.
