[QUOTE="68rs327, post: 417035, member: 8397"] Update: Well, it rained about 2" last night, boat filled with water and I have about 6 rivets on the bottom leaking! :? Need ideas on what rivets to uses, not sure how you measure rivets? Not sure what rivets are best and how do you measure the rivets on the boat? All I can go by is the round head that's showing, don't know how big the shaft is? I would like for the rivets to somewhat match. I suppose I would use dome closed end rivets? and 1/4" is as big as my rivet gun will go... If someone could comment on the exact size rivets needed, I'll order them today. Thanks, [url=https://s893.photobucket.com/user/68rs327/media/Rivet%20Leaking_zpsn9p8rogm.jpg.html][img]https://i893.photobucket.com/albums/ac132/68rs327/Rivet%20Leaking_zpsn9p8rogm.jpg[/img][/url] [/QUOTE]
