So I have spent all winter mulling over whether or not I should put lifting rails on my 26' seaway while the deck is up for new tanks. Here is what I am left with, the hull is cored and I have access to through bolt all parts of the rails if I put them on. However in some areas it is a serious stretch and therefore I would still be able to through bolt them but not hollow out the core from the back etc. So i guess my question is is hollowing out the core a must? is 5200ing everything and using 1/4" hardware enough to keep it water tight since they will be submerged? Are there any other options? (i have looked into smart rails)
