The new boat I'm thinking of buying is a deep vee. At the bottom of the
vee, as it were, is a small flat "pad." The pad serves several functions
which I won't get into here.

Have you considered just shooting through the hull without a hole?
There are a number of methods used that, although they may not be as
efficient as when in contact with water, would save you from having to
create a thru hull.

You'd lose the paddle wheel but forego a hassle. Just a thought.

I've done all three and would dismiss shooting through the hull as the
worst of the three.
