[QUOTE="gnappi, post: 439014, member: 22374"] Rivet story... I once had a 25' Sea Ray mid cabin that they had value engineered the rub rail to attach via pop rivets. No washer. One day out in 3' seas I went below decks and my feet sloshed in water, SALT water! It seems as if the pop rivets pulled through the two layers (top and bottom halves) of glass, and the rail was sagging allowing the water to splash up into the cabin. Nuff said. [/QUOTE]
