[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 423769, member: 15636"] I'd bet $$$ the OEM hull maker used solid rivets. See my signature line for Rebuild #3 for putting in new wood & securing w/ SS bolts, or Rebuild #5 for both transom replacement and removal of a splashwell area, including re-riveting the hull back together with solid rivets and air tools. Note on #5 that the stern is also reinforced with strategically placed SS bolts. I'm not saying my posts are the [i]de facto standard[/i] or the ONLY way to effect a transom repair, but between what I had faced, along with my pictures and info ... and it just might give you a good idea of how to proceed with your hull. Ask away if any questions! And as Johnny quite rightly said - this is one area where pictures are of tremendous value ... [/QUOTE]
