Different kind of building method this little boat has.Two of them cast aluminum thingamigigies were leaking ,the one dead center of the transom, and one on the right of it ,,,unbolted them and cleaned them up, it leaves quite a hole when they are off,,,, wouldnt want that bolt to snap while im out on the lake,,,filled them right up with silicone thats supposed to be made for aluminum, and bolted them back on, dont know if its gona seal it ,,Ill find out out soon enough ,,,gotta go to my union hall tomorow to weld up some of the corners of that stiffenner between the transom and bench, 3 of the corners craked when I removed it, and also theres a leak somewhere along the keel,,,guess this boat gona keep me busy for a while going to need to make a floor, as what I saw on their site ,didnt know it had one in the first palce theres no indications that there ever was one no drill holes in them pipe stiffeners or any indications or clues that there was once a floor in there, pics of that boats inside are hard to come by,,and winter is heading this way,, twas 18C today kinda rare for this time of the year only plus five for tomorrow,boat repairs might have to wait a while,,,,,Mike
