Hi Danny You are adding it to the edge of the plywood? A nail won't do much there, and it may split the plys apart. I'd just glue it with epoxy. If you really feel the need to make the joint stronger you should get a biscuit joiner. The resulting joint is much stronger, uses a wooden biscuit to make the joint - so no corrosion issues. Not visible after assembly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biscuit_joiner

I am actively trying to chase down all the sources of water in the bilge but, until then... As I understand it, SS doesn't really like like an environment that could be wet with little oxygen and suffers crevice corrosion. I have another question in reference to this same project. I'll be adding a solid 1/2 x 1 piece of teak to the edge of the T&H plywood to frame out the bilge opening. My plan is to epoxy it there and finish nail it in place. I can't seem to find any bronze finish nails. Would anyone have any advice as to the type of nail and material. Currently I'm thinking my only option is a stainless finish nail. My question is more of what size, should I pre-drill to avoid splitting the solid teak edging? Actually any insight or advice at all will be appreciated. After this project I plan on going to the Salon to get my hair done and then I reckon I'll jump on my mustang, called Ol Paint to mosey on over to the Saloon for a whiskey and few hands of poker...
