So... Wish I had found this site sooner. Tons of great info on here!!! I picked up an old but good 13' 6" aluminum V hull for $100 with a decent trolling motor. The two benches were trashed so I drilled out the rivets on the side(will use holes for bench and rod mounts) and bottom. Should I just weld a little piece of aluminum to cover the holes on the bottom? It wouldn't take much to do it. It was only 4 little holes in two spots so 2x 4" x 4" patches should cover them both. I plan on putting a low floor in the bottom, deck up front and a storage style bench in the back with 2 of the Wise swivel hunting seat/coolers in the middle. Eventually I will get a gas motor but for just putting around the cove the trolling motor will be fine.
So what would be the most effective way to plug them?
P.S. I am very jealous of the time & work you guys get to put into your projects. Awesome stuff!!! Keep it up!
