They sure are, given that they are the shape of an egg, weakest point would be how they are fastened to the deck. Mine is over 40 years old, fastened by several suitable bolts. A couple of which (now) allow a drop or two through in heavy conditions. Today there are so many top class adhesives / sealants available probably any bolts / screws would only be for location.

Island Time 1,230 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 IMO they should be bolted, due to the area above the deck - I'd bolt them but use Bed it Tape as a permanently flexible sealant. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
