I was just going to type "in before Fergal" and bang there you were

Marine Parts in Swords do a good selection and nationwide delivery for 5 quid

This one will suit a hog and a 4hp. I recommend the plastic ones I find the wooden ones dont age well

Use a steel bit it will cut through everything and won't be too hard on the fiberglass put a bit of masking tape where each hole is and use a punch to mark the holes and to stop the bit from walking.
