[QUOTE="Fishfndr, post: 364525, member: 15078"] I was hopeful this idea would work, but the bottom lip is riveted in there too, all the way across, and then I'd have to remove all of the rivets for those braces in the middle, which include rivets on the [i]bottom[/i] of the boat that I really don't want to deal with. Assuming I have to remove those corner brackets on the left and right corners of the stern, how do I get them back on there with that blue foam in the way? Would pop rivets work? Or have I got to figure out how to take off the foam as well? What a nightmare. I just can't believe they make this piece of wood so darn hard to replace, since it's of course going to fail at some point. [/QUOTE]
