Sandman0007 Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 (edited) Hey Guys I need some advice on the correct way to replace rivets on my boat. Its my first time so im not to sure how to replace them. So my question is Would the washer end be at the bottom of the boat or on the inside?. Thanks In Advance..

irishfield Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 If you can access both sides... then those aren't the rivets to be using ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeontroller Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Take it to a marina/boat dealer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassjnkie Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Wrong rivets, like Irish said. Get it done professionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 I have nothing wrong with the second rivet from the left...it's a sealed tank rivet. But if you can access both sides do it right and use solid rivets.. not pull rivets. Driving/bucking rivets isn't a mystical science..... heck even I can do it !
