[QUOTE="henro, post: 386930, member: 17748"] Made some progress this week... Sealed the drain holes on the keels with allen head locking nuts which we rtv'd to seal up. The rivets were leaking in an unreachable spot under the keels and inside the ribs of the boat so when the keels filled up the water came in. I also g flex'd all the rivets exposed in the middle of the boat. Water tested it today and there was no more water coming in. After that I finally got to paint the inside of the boat and the benches. This week I'll be able to put the floors and seats back in and start wiring everything. I bought a new 600gph bilge and float switch for insurance [ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1431915467.306359.jpg"]75477._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1431915482.971912.jpg"]75478._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1431913229.242628.jpg"]75472._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1431913217.247359.jpg"]75471._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1431913361.425124.jpg"]75475._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1431913388.794342.jpg"]4[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
