Hi
I’ve measured and only 4 inch fits
Unfortunately
and I’m leaning towards the 5200 as I need that dive mounting plate installed permanently
Hopefully I can take the old bolts easily now since the plate is loose as I need to fix the fibreglass crack first
Thanks

Hopefully that fracturing of the fiberglass is due to the bracket moving and not the cause of the bracket movement. In either case, you need to remove the bracket and see what is going on

I probably mentioned it above, but all you need is nyloc nuts to make it permanent.

If you happen to damage it in the future and need to replace it, by using 5200 you run the risk of causing $500 to $1,000 worth of gelcoat damage during removal. But... it's your boat and your call.
