How to Install Boat Track Mount on Fiberglass Boat | Cisco Track Mount, TraxTech, Bert's Track

[@countryrapper2000]

Great video. As a carpenter I would say it's a bad idea to caulk the edge. Water will get in, all the caulk will do is trap water. Thanks for putting the video up.

[@BooneBoys]

I agree with you on caulking edges. We ended up not caulking them. Thanks for watching

Great video, watched it a few times and made my install really simple. Very much appreciated.

[@BooneBoys]

Glad it helped you out!

Great informative video, I never would have known about the tape trick or the 5200!

[@BooneBoys]

That 5200 is good stuff. Don’t over apply it and leave. It will expand as it dries. I always stick around and wipe it off as it dries and expands. But it’s best to not over apply it. Glad you could use the video!

Used a 3/16 drill bit for the holes with the screws in the link provided. Lund boat, screw broke off in the fiberglass and gel coat cracked despite aggressive champfer. Upsized to 7/32 drill bit and worked much better.

[@BooneBoys]

Thanks for the info. I haven’t had one break off yet thank goodness. I’ve put on 5 more rails since this video.

[@BooneBoys]

Sorry that happened. I usually go in and back screw out and keep doing that, but I agree it’s better to be safe so you don’t break a screw off. We haven’t broken a screw yet using this method, but it would if we didn’t go in and out.

3M 4200 would have been way better to use , but nice job :)

Great video. I have a 621 VS Is there a possibility to use bolts nuts washers instead of screws? I understand I would need to check for obstacles underneath. Last question. Can I keep original rails and just add a 6” track on each side for downriggers?

[@BooneBoys]

If you watch our newest videos you’ll see 6” rails on the very back of the boat. I used bolts and washers for those and glue. It would be tough to do the side rails with bolts. If it were me I wouldn’t even try. For downriggers, I believe have a minimum rail of 24”. I would probably agree with that.

Do you install or recommend an installer for Cisco track? This would be near Cleveland, Ohio.

[@BooneBoys]

I don’t know of any installers. We are in Oklahoma. What kind of boat do you have? I just installed another 6 tracks and they go by really fast especially if you already know the drill bit size. You can honestly do without the chamfer bit if you want.

@@BooneBoys i have 273 Everglades CC. It’s fiberglass but I’m worried it doesn’t have the wood paneling like the ranger

[@BooneBoys]

@@josephmiceli6913 I could be wrong but our boat is only fiberglass. I would think that most all fiberglass gunnels could handle these. I think between the glue and quite a few holes you should be good. I never measured but I’m guessing gunnel thickness is 1/4”-3/8”.

Thx!

[@everyday-occurances]

Did you get to fish today?

[@BooneBoys]

We had a quick evening at Canton and John Barry caught his PB striper! I’ll try and get video out Saturday morning. Did you go this weekend?

[@everyday-occurances]

We had flag football Saturday and church this morning, and didn't do much other than that...I keep joking about taking a suck day from school to hit Canton again.

*sick...🤣

[@tlarsen2468]

What size champfer did you use?

[@BooneBoys]

I used a 1/2” champfer bit.
