[QUOTE="TDobb, post: 437804, member: 22124"] Forgot to mention, for the sides of the boat, when you take that carpet covered plywood off of there, you will very likely see hat channel ribs. You can very safely drive a rivet through the top part of the hat channel to connect support angles to them. Just be sure you are going through the hat channel and not the actual hull. If you want to go through the actual hull (shouldn't need to but maybe your layout dictates the need) you could use sealed rivets and buck them in with an air hammer and backer block. You have easy access to both sides of the material with that boat. [/QUOTE]
