[QUOTE="Trackerpro17, post: 236816, member: 7502"] Boat is looking good! I also have a 1989 Bass Tracker Pro 17 but with a different motor. I was wondering if your boat might also have some hair line cracks between the rivets that are on the outside edge of the bottom of the boat? It's the rivets that hold the main floor braces to the bottom of the boat. My boat has 6 different spots with these cracks all being on the outside edge of the bottom of the boat between the rivets. I have heard that these year models are known for this problem. I have tried JB Weld and it works for a while but eventually cracks too due to the flex of the aluminum I think. I might have to try to have the cracks welded up if that is possible from the outside. Any suggestions? Good luck with finishing your project! [/QUOTE]
