[QUOTE="kcsphil, post: 388046, member: 18036"] I'm a little concerned about the middle picture - is the aluminum actually torn inside along the fold? If not then, yeah, you can hammer it out. I would also look at how the gunwale is attached to the top of the hull somewhere else - if its welded, then once you get everything abnge dout you need to clean the joint and get it welded too for strength. those little forward cockpit boats with windshields are fairly cool from my perspective - and you should probably think about recovering the froward frames for a storage locker if you take off the forward controls for good. I wouldn't use that frame for anything you want to stand on . . . so no casting deck unless you lower it. Will you do a back bench for the tiller drive, or install a floor and seat? [/QUOTE]
