I used brass grommets, the ones use for tents and tarps, crimp to a 2" dia patch then glue to the fabric, then cut out the hole after painting. Do you need grommets called drain holes, yes. They let the structure breath and let any condensation vent to the outside air. Use only seaplane ones on seaplanes. Hope this helps.
