Hey guys. My steelflex is supposed to be delivered tomorrow (ordered it yesterday. props to Fasco for the fast service!) Anyways, I'm anxious to put on the steelflex, but I need to do some hull repair before I apply it. I know I have a tiny leak, and hopefully I will be able to fill the boat with water over the holiday weekend and see where the leaks are. I have a feeling that it may be coming from one or more of these bolts I have circled in red. I have no clue what purpose they serve, or served. Whether they are the cause of my leak or not, I want them gone. They are just four random bolts that run through the bottom of the transom. They have a phillips head outside the hull, and a regular hex nut on the inside. There doesn't appear to be any sort of sealant around the inside or outside of the bolt. What options do I have for filling in the holes that will be left behind after the bolts are removed? I'd like to avoid welding, but if that is the only option, can one of my Gwinnett brothers hook me up with a good welder?
Thanks!
Thanks!
