[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 397790, member: 13599"] are you getting ready to put in a full floor ?? if so, then I second 2smknbrls line of thought. [ATTACH type="full" alt="cable run.png"]79461._xfImport[/ATTACH] How tall are the ribs ? How many do you have ? After looking more closely at the well welded fabrication, in [i]MY[/i] world, I would break out the 1" hole cutter and get it done. but - that is just ME, in MY world. [ATTACH type="full" alt="cable end.jpg"]79463._xfImport[/ATTACH] maybe find some PVC pipe, garden hose, or something to prevent chafing. this is your boat - your call. I guess if you are gonna drill the holes, go to the Big Box store first and get the appropriate size rubber grommets to prevent chafing. Then, the appropriate size hole saw or step drill bit.
