Default Bilge install question

I purchsed the 2 bilge pumps and I have a question on how fix them to the bottom.

It looks like they have places for screwing them down but do I first have to glass in a piece of wood to the bottom?

or would a amble amount of 5200 get the job done?

best way suggestions please!!!

I also purchased some other goodies !!

Personally I feel better knowing it's screwed down and not going to move but I have heard of guys using the 5200.

Jorge,

Mine came from the factory with a big Rule pump strapped to the center stringer with an aluminum U-shaped bracket with a strip of rubber glued to inside of bracket. It was located on stbd side all the way aft against transom. Still mounted the same way 40 years later!
