[QUOTE="g0nef1sshn, post: 398239, member: 16085"] I love the looks of them old ones too! #3. What should I use to fill the gap in the seam between the side and the bottom? It leaks on both sides and along the bottom in the back. You can try to rebuck those rivets as much as you can, then what I used was called gluvit to seal all my rivets and seams below the water line on the inside of the hull only. Ive used quite a bit of 3m 5200 too. I can see that working also. But rebucking them rivets or replacing them is what I would start with myself. A lot of what I did to my boat was a first for me, kinda used the advice I got on some things, and just went at it with others. Im redoing some things now because of it, but nothing major. [/QUOTE]
