[QUOTE="chrispbrown27, post: 301701, member: 9661"] First of all, I am curious is your boat a Lowe? That looks just like the transom on my Grandpa's old boat. As far as rivets go, order a riveter from harbor freight for 20 bucks then order some rivets from Mcmaster Carr. They are by far the best place I have found. Prices were cheap, 15 or so bucks for 100 rivets, the delivery is fast and cheap, 6 bucks for 4 day delivery. Closed end (though I believe they call them sealed end) aluminum (not aluminum with steel mandrel). Hard to beat and certainly a lot easier on you hands and shoulders then beating in a solid rivet.
