So if it's not going through the gelcoat how is it going to cause stress cracks? I must be missing something here.
I am thinking of having a ski pilon installed. They are not drilling through the gel coat its going to be installed forward of the engine well through the upohlstery. I am wondering if this may cause stress cracks in the gell coat? Has any one had an problems with this?

It's going to be about 1" or so forward of the gel coat. Wondering if the flex of the tube will be enough to crack the gel coat?
The ones we make are 1 3/4" round solid bar. You might get that much flex at the top but I doubt it at the point where it passes through the seat, depending on how you mount it. Unless of course you're towing boats or something which wouldn't be advisable with a tall pole.
Don't plan on parasailing with it!!!
Hey Rex the pylon you are talking about, is it solid aluminium or steel?
And what do u think would be better? The aluminum or stainless?
Ours are Aluminum. Never had a problem with one at 48" long mounted properly. Stainless would be stiffer (not necessary IMO), much heavier, and much costlier.
Rex whats your polished aluminum run for installed?
