[QUOTE="SVOMike86, post: 208774, member: 2070"] All I can say without seeing pics is that rivets aren't nearly as bad as they're made out to be. You just have to center punch them, then drill them out. Once you have your new transom in, replace them with stainless steel hardware. Carriage bolts have the same style domed head as rivets, so If you replace the rivets with them and paint them, no one would even know. When you re-install hardware, make sure to use a sealer like 3M 5200 on all of the bolts to prevent any water from finding its way in. [/QUOTE]
