[QUOTE="Lonestar1960, post: 485798, member: 31442"] Thanks for the reply, I will clean the silicon off every rivet and fill it up with water and check for leaks. Y'all have to try sitting at the helm of this boat! I imagine it feels like being in the cockpit of an airplane. I'm sure my back won't appreciate it when it's choppy but it's absolutely amazing. As for the welding, how much do you think a job like this is? I generally try to buy tools I can reuse and learn the new skill as opposed to paying for a one-time job but welding may have a steep learning curve. Always wanted to buy one though. Do you think the cheap few hundred dollar TIG welders on Amazon are good enough to practice with then use on a small job like this? [/QUOTE]
