[QUOTE="talltimber, post: 100209, member: 1452"] I've got a boat(welded) that has some short cracks in the rib flanges in bottom of the boat. I've had these welded up. I am curious to know if anyone else has had this done, and if it was a successful permanent fix? I have been told by a few that it would most likely crack beside the new weld. Good boat, and not abused, just used. I have not seen any blemishes on the bottom of the boat, and I know of nothing that I have hit. Just trying to find a cure/answer to this problem. Cracks were found when I took the aluminum floor out for repainting and replacing foam. As always, thanks in advance. tt [/QUOTE]
