Securing the bilge pump

A newbie question:  I'm about to add a second bilge pump as per Tom's article and was wondering if I can screw it directly to the bilge floor or if there was a different method?

John,
The fiberglass in the keel stub is at least 1" think, so using a short SS screw is s good way to attach the bilge pump. That's how I did it, with a dab of LifeSeal.
