Glad I could help. 5200 is great stuff and is "permanent" but can be removed by chipping or sanding. 4200 is "semi permanent.
I found a boat building forum (Iboats.com) when I started my restoration project and that's when I discovered these.
I was also hesitant on drilling holes in brand new fiberglass specially below the waterline. My drain plug tube was the most stressful. Happy to say nothing has leaked, not a single drop.
If you decide against using screws and to only use adhesive, youll need a way to clamp it tight. I backed it in the garage real close to the wall and use a set of Irwin bar clamps(the end is detachable and will "spread vs clamp) to keep constant pressure until everything cured.
