Re: Type of screw into boom.

AT the end you stay with a screw... Easy...
Problem... What diameter the hole has to be. Just test out.

Re: 10 "Banned" DIY Repairs That Will VOID Your Boat Insurance
well, theory or did you do it? I have a LiFe directely connected to the OB, works since 4 years now. I use a LiFe Y PO4, Winston battery. There is absolutely NO electronic inside, no switch.
