The rear bench seat in my jon has cracks around previous bolt holes. How can I make a lasting fix of these cracks? I thought about riveting another piece of aluminum on top the length of the bench. Any other suggestions?

I have the same issue with mine.I plan to cut the tops of the benches out,pop rivet in some 1x1 aluminum angle,and cut some 1/2 inch ply to make seat hatches.Pop(AKA cherry) rivets are not hard to deal with.It's the solid rivets used to hold hull seams together.These should be used below the water line or in areas that may get water spray.
