Whoa! Your really getting right in there...I assume you know how to repair that? If not i have a good hobie pdf that outlines the process. Can you take a picture of the interior top lip where the tramp rail screws in? Im trying to determine how thick the aluminum plate is and how long it is. Also trying to figure out how deep the rivets go into it. Ive looked at it with a mirror but a pic to compare would be nice.
