I have found quite a few of these boats with loose rivets along the port side. All loose rivets are in the same area regardless of year. All of the fisherman that I have talked to that own this boat, have the same rivet issues. I have a 2003 model that has not been in the water for over a year and a half due to compromised hull integrity (Over 100 loose rivets) and an improper repair from the manufacturer. My legal process ends in a couple of months and I do not want any other fisherman to suffer the injustice that I have since my purchase. The more people I find with this issue, the more solid my case will become. Public forum offers me the opportunity to talk with more people than I could find by waiting at a boat ramp. That said, I would really appreciate the opportunity to talk to any current or past owners of this style of boat. Please call my cell phone listed in my first post, Thank you. Timm
