Chuck,
I don't recall from previous posts which boat your are building, but the most common method of installing foot pedals is to epoxy in a long block of wood to the inside of the boat after deck is attached and bulkheads are installed. Prepare the block in advance to accomodate your set of pedals or rails (T-nuts, screw holes, bolts, etc.) and then attach you rhardware to this block after thickened epoxy has hardened.
