[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 270465, member: 5461"] This is interesting. I didn't know there was a gasket between the two pieces. I've disassembled a few riveted boats and found no gasket, but they were pretty old. If there is a gasket and you weld it, I'd think there would no longer be a need for the gasket since the weld essentially makes the two pieces into one piece, eliminating the potential for leaking. It would be good to see a picture of the crack in question. [/QUOTE]
