I do it all the time off my 12 foot flat. Inflate your bc fully and put it in the water first. Get in water then put it on. When getting back in take it off and put it in the boat first. Bilge pump is needed for this method.
I have a 12 foot jon that has rivets that are popped out of the ribs in the boat but still connected in the inside of the boat. Anyone ever had this or any expirience with it? How do I fix this? Will post pic later. I greatly appreciate anyone that can help me out.
Have any of yall painnted a outboard? Im thinkin about painting my 84 evinrude 8 horse. If you have how did it turn out and how did you go about it? Any help appreciated. Thanks
Cabelas carries boat patch sticks. There plasticy and you melt em on the rivet with a propane torch.
Ive used em and love them.
