receiver. Use a pencil to extend the alignment tab onto the surface bracket.
Unscrew the surface bracket.
3. At the selected location, position the surface bracket with the pencil mark facing
forward. Using it as a template, mark the position for the three mounting screws
and the center hole for the cable.

Fiberglass—Minimize surface cracking by running the drill in reverse until the
gelcoat is penetrated.

silicone sealant.
6. Apply silicone sealant to the three #10 x 1/2" self-tapping screws to seal the
deck. With the pencil mark facing forward, fasten the surface bracket in place.

the surface bracket to escape. CAUTION: Do not use a liquid thread locker as it
may weaken the plastic, causing it to swell and crack.
