[QUOTE="ober51, post: 87384, member: 1354"] Weather isn't great, and won't be for a while (need a bunch of nice days in a row to really get into this thing), so I decided to rip out the transom. It was half waterlogged, and had all sorts of critters behind it. Glad I did that. I am just thinking about ripping out the second to last bench seat. I don't think it should be a problem, given the thickness of the aluminum, the ribs that extend all the way up the side, and putting some more flotation foam back in to make up for the material lost in the seat. Any suggestions? How do I take out the riveted seats? Do I just drill into the rivets? I read that here, but a little more information would be great before I screw anything up! [/QUOTE]
