[QUOTE="michiganman18, post: 89534, member: 1402"] My new 16ft jon that I recently aquired, is made from only one sheet of aluminum, only problem is that the seats/benches were riveted down and they have busted loosed in the 40yrs of use. So they were rebolted by someone, but that broke the aluminum around the bolts on the bench. What should i use. SS bolts? with maybe a sealer? or a certain type of rivets witha sealer. These holews are rather large. Maybe 1/4 of an inch or bigger. What do you guys suggest. Sorry no pics. Camera was stolen when i walked away from my bag while it was open. :( [/QUOTE]
