[QUOTE="mirrocraft16, post: 518030, member: 34654"] Definitely look at that transom, and do not use any pressure treated wood, it attacks aluminum. If the wood is still strong, how about sanding and refinishing it with some good spar varnish? If its rotted, a more permanent fix would be some expanded PVC cut to fit, (Azec or similar) Its not cheap but its forever and requires no paint. Rivets on a boat like that which are not through the hull can be replaced with stainless machine screws, but I think I'd want original type buck rivets on anything that goes through the exterior of the hull.
