How to "fasten/glue/afix" shelves to non-gelcoat
When taking the Mako boat out I have more Plano lure boxes than I have room in my tackle box and do not wish transfer then in and out of the boat every time I use it. I was thinking of trying to store all the extra ones inside lower boat area below Center Console. I want to afix/glue/fasten some sort of shelves which would be shallow pockets against the inside walls where I could "drop" those Plano boxes into. Pockets would be deep enough so rough boat ride would not allow them to fall out. The inside walls are fiberglass and are non gelcoated. I cannot drill through them with metal fasteners as they would be seen on outside and be unsightly so gluing is only option. . I have not picked out shelve pockets yet but would assume plastic or fiberglass material. I would assume epoxys and glues probably would not work and from the bouncing they would eventually fall off. I know they make figerglass repair kits but really don't know much about what is involved. Some bigger boats have doors you open up that have factory shelves that you can store all those extra plano boxes into, mine does not.
One of the large plano boxes would hold all my heavy sinkers which is one that I do not wish to continue to load/unload from the boat on each use.
Things like .... sinkers, bucktail box... things that you will always want on the boat.
