[QUOTE="DMack, post: 462015, member: 24366"] Thanks for the tips. I guess I would love to leave the bracket there but try to beef it up somehow. Where it is riveted to the hull is sound so I'd hate to replace those with something that will potentially loosen up and leak over time. I guess I should first ask, what would you guys do to repair, replace or beef up those brackets? Regarding welding, I would love to keep it a DIY project and welding a new set of brackets is out of my league. If it comes down to replacing with bolts, washers and nuts I guess I can just go with stainless and isolate with nylon washers. I don't need it to last another 40 years. Thanks, Dan [/QUOTE]
