[QUOTE="StrasBuff, post: 134447, member: 2997"] First? You guys will have to bear with me; I don’t have all the terminology down yet. My first question deals with the front of the boat. It looks like the previous owner drilled through and added a tie off. I see several problems here: 1. The original joint (spine) is compromised. 2. All the fastener/rivets are rusting out. 3. There is a crack on one side of the spine and decent size hole on the other side that is covered up by the fender washer and rubber gasket. 4. The tie off has no reinforcement on the inside of the boat. Should I add reinforcement on the inside for the tie off and what would be the best way to fill the cracks, hole and fasteners? Thanks [/QUOTE]
