[QUOTE="Johnzsmith, post: 265352, member: 8844"] When I said leak, I really should have clarified that they are like weepers. I had the boat filled with water for a few hours and at most got a couple tablespoons of water all together from about a dozen places. Would re-seating the rivets do the trick? Along with the sealant of course. Wood vs aluminum, wood will win out simply because it's easier for me to work with, and I have the majority of the tools I will need. Screwing into the ribs makes a lot more sense! I figure it will take a little bit but I really want to get it done in time to use it by the first of July or so. [/QUOTE]
