Those rivets are only holding on the rail not holding the boat together in two parts. And most people would agree it isnt a good idea to seperate the two. Where is the hole? do you have pictures?

6" if you dont mind taking off the goose neck...8" if you dont want to take it off.

I actually just used the cheap preveal sprayers. Since it was only last coat I was mostly really only trying to cover up any roller marks. So it worked out pretty well. The next one i do though I wont to get a real gun and just gelcoat the whole thing and not do paint. The paint just doesnt...

I rolled on the first three coats....I sprayed on the fourth.

Thanks!! It is paint.

So I posted the last pictures to my site. I am finally done with my fish will be taking it out in a couple of weeks will let everyone know how it goes. Thanks for everyones help. :p http://sites.google.com/site/picturesofsunfishproject/

So I replaced my old style with a new style rudder plate. i wasnt able to get the backling plate as high as I wanted to. Is this going to be an issue? The extension for the rudder is fine when rudder is on doesnt hit the hull. But the plate is about a .5" or so below where it should be I...

they should all be able to go in the edge of the cockpit.

I use the 241 on both of my boats and have not had any problems. as long as you can uncleat your fine.

So I finished painting today. I thought I would show some pictures with all the updates. now working on the rudder.....and for some more hardware to come in. http://sites.google.com/site/picturesofsunfishproject

Thanks Wayne! I knew the gelcoat over paint was bad just wanted to make sure the opposite was ok. Appreciate it.

So after reading a couple of other threads I wanted to check to see if this is going to cause me problems later. When I repaired the bottom of my boat I did gelcoat over the repairs I did, but then I painted the rest of the boat. Is it going to be a problem that I did paint over the gelcoat...

so I recently painted the bottom of my sunfish. and it appears the paint is scratching very easily. Not sure if I missed a step or did something wrong. After i did my repairs I redid the gelcoat in those areas. I did not go through the gel coat in other areas. I then primed the surface...

That looks awesome....thanks I think I will give that a try. 67Stang....paint job looks really good on top. Nice looking boat.

Removing them is pretty easy. Take a look at this and it should help if ur having any quesions. http://www.windline.net/BailerR.htm

Thanks I appreciate it. I figured drilling them out was the best way I just wanted a confirmation. I am already doing some glass work on the top anyways. So I will probably just do that. Thanks a lot

So I took off the coaming on the boat I am working on. And half of the hardware was missing and couple more pulled out when i was taking it off. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to remove the ones that are still in the boat so I can just rivet it back on when I am ready? Thanks

I have seen these a lot on ebay it is sad that someone doesnt take the time to find it any other way on their own. Way I see it kind of what you get for not looking around.

Re: A few pics of what I had ahead of me, advice would be appreciated. I dont really think they are 'rare' It is just the older year of boats. So I wouldnt be too concerned :) http://sites.google.com/site/picturesofsunfishproject/

I am wanting to add a complete new trim. The aluminum one I had one is gone. It was pretty well trashed when i got the boat.
