[QUOTE="Vermonster, post: 248970, member: 7992"] Seat - more than likely you can, but what are you going to put in it? If it's just tackle/supplies it wouldn't throw the weight off much. If it's another battery you may need to balance it out. Wood - depends on how long you want it to last, but don't use pressure treated stuff anywhere near the aluminum. Exterior grade plywood treated with spar urethane (3 coats) would be fine. Transom - if it's just old I wouldn't pull it out. If it has any rot or soft spots - I would replace it. Leaks - Rivets can be replaced or bucked if necessary. Paint is not a good solution for a leak. For non rivet leaks read the threads on 3M 5200 and Steel Flex. [/QUOTE]
