[QUOTE="possom813, post: 198776, member: 5773"] I've got to wait for the tornado warning to go away before I can mess with it anymore and hope the rain coming into my carport sideways didn't hurt the curing fiberglass #-o The next step is straightening up a couple of braces and reinforcing them with aluminum angle. Also, where the idiots broken the transom and the motor was bouncing into it, there's a nice little dent in the aluminum I'm going to have to try and beat out, the portapower won't straighten it and I can't pry it out. I figure I'm going to whack it with a hammer on hammer action tomorrow and see if I can get it out far enough for the new transom to slide in. Is there a pop rivet that I can buy to replace the rivets that came out of the transom and braces or am I going to have to use either galvanized or stainless bolts? [/QUOTE]
