thanks everybody for their input. tim you had the right idea. i tried my cheapo 10.00 stud finder, it beeped all over the place and not the same every time. looked into renting a metal detector but it beeped in too big of an area. i bought a stud finder with a metal detector setting, beeped in the same place every time. drilled and came out with aluminum on the bit. going back with silicon bronze bolts.

A moisture meter would also have worked. It can detect the copper screen in my hard top.

Sorry for the delay, I took some pictures including the measuring tape last weekend, from the port side to the middle. And one from inside on the starboard side.
