That is the first time i have ever drilled thru the bottom of a boat. Two blind rivets in with plenty of 5200 oozing out. two more to look at that are covered in silicone but need to move the boat forward on the trailer a few inches.
ok, i was looking at something the other day and i noticed labeled blue band and brown band. I figured it was something like that but really forgot about it. my guess is the faceplate is accurate as it is an 82 boat. Assuming someone dropped the band in the water...
got way deep in the main tributary - several times I walked the boat a few feet. Clear water about 5' deep which if you are from the south you know is rare.
