That being said, if all you ever do is travel at displacement speeds (not planing) and 6 HP or under, I say go for it. Not pounding through whitecaps. If rivets are leaking, rebuck them. You can get a tool for this but all I do is get a buddy to hold a sledge on the outside and whack the rivet from the inside. Sometimes hit em again with a center punch to swell it up.</p></blockquote><p></p>
