Hi,
I opened this tread yesterday in the general boating discuss and kind of got blasted by MONSTAA and two members
interfered, Buck183 and Trick in my favor and I would like to show them my regards. Buck183 told me that I would probably get better answers in this forum.
OK let's come to the question.
I have spotted a Powerquest 280 Silencer and I believe that I am having a reasonable price for this boat but there is no Bow rails and I would really like to have one on, would make me feel safer on the deck. I know that bolting through the deck is the best way to go, but can I install an aftermarket one without tearing everything up in the boat or just put it on with stainless wood screws and some kind of glue EX:3m5200 or something else.
Doing this, would it be safe?

If your going to bother to put on a bow railing, through bolt it.! That way it'll be there when you need it. OTHERWISE DONT WASTE YOUR TIME!
