[QUOTE="rcgrunt448, post: 470288, member: 24228"] New member - first post!! Thanks for more pieces to fill the puzzle. I have a 1950 'Reynolds' boat I bought last December. It had the wood strakes on the bottom. I took it completely apart because it had been "redone" a few times in the past and EVERY nut, bolt, washer, and screw were just [u]standard steel[/u]!! The transom had been reinforced with beautifully engineered pieces of [u]standard steel[/u]. Worse corrosion occurred on the bottom bolts for the strakes. I fill brazed the bottom holes and used 1x2 PVC trim set in 3M 5200 to replace the wood strakes. Can't wait to see your pictures!! I'll post pics of my boat when I figure out how to do it. :LOL2: [/QUOTE]
