deetch Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 I know this topic was just recently posted but does someone have a name of person or company around the Niagara region that will rivet my aluminum boat Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w1w Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 My friend worked at Fleet (aircraft) in Fort Erie. Very good fitter. He installed a couple ribs and one bulkhead (?) on my Sea Nymph, years ago. My point...a lot of guys in Fort Erie worked at Fleet and still do. Possibly, you could put a WANTED ad in Fort Erie Buy and Sell? I've done that kind of thing to locate a local service in the past. Only a suggestion. Good luck!

tombo Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Entire boat, or a few bad rivets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deetch Posted June 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 I would say about 1/4 of a 17 ft boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deetch Posted June 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 We know exactly the spot as we filled the boat with water and we know where it is leaking from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombo Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 I know of a guy between cayuga and hagersville used to do it. Cant remember his name, but I did find him through online search... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
