[QUOTE="waterloomarc, post: 394679, member: 19292"] I hope I'm not breaking forum etiquette by bringing an old thread back to life. (new here, great site!) I recently acquired an old Sea King myself. Although she's fine to get me through the summer I'm planning my over haul for the winter. My top priority and concern is getting the floor in. I'm a pretty fair woodworker so I'm confident in my ability to deck it out but the aluminum framing is throwing me for a loop. How are the bottom deck brackets you installed over the boat ribs at the ends? I clearly see the center supports and I see what looks to be rivets on the ends. What to the rivets fasten to? The boat bracket itself? Do they go through the hull itself? I'm a newbie to all these modifications and putting holes in the boat is a bit of a head trip. Thanks, Marc [/QUOTE]
