[QUOTE="nytebyte, post: 474869, member: 20476"] If it turns out to be just a few loose rivets- I made a couple bars out of old railroad spikes. One is ground down flat then I hollowed a place on it for the rivet head. Second one I just ground flat. One person under the boat putting pressure on the rivet head with the ground out one with another on the inside to give it a good tap or two. When you locate the loose ones mark them so you know and after you get them rebucked add water to the bottom inside to check. [/QUOTE]
