Any experience using them for structure? I'm not sure of the size yet
I have friend who uses them (stainless) on the hull of his Starcraft islander boat to replace original. They too are under the waterline. They have worked and held up well over the years...

Good to know I will try them first then I will measure the size and get back to you thank you
