Floor fixing options

Post by Andy » 13 Oct 2018, 05:47

Hi
What options do I have for fixing stuff to the floor of a Honwave T40 ?
Stuff like boxes, seats etc ? Gluing, screwing, bungees etc

Obviously I could screw, glue to transom, or glue kits/fittings to the tubes.

Best way to fix a coolbox/seat from moving around ?

Cheers

Make the same fixing as the fuel tank strap or I have a couple of ratchet straps in between the floorboards where I need them. :thumbsup

On my Honwave T30 I use paracord and small carabiners to attach things to the various rings inside the hull or the grab rope going round the top of the hull.

The marine specific versions of the Coleman extreme coolbox actuallybhave a fixing kit to hold them in place. It consists of four corner pieces which are fastened to the floor and some kind of restraining strap. Sorry - writing this from memory. You could devise something similar for whatever box you use.
Not a complete idiot - some parts are missing.

Strangely I was looking at the new Coleman extremes at the weekend, they’ve increased the overall size of the big boy one now.
It’s a beast... :o
