[quote=turbohobo]Once you remove that bolt, keep in mind that the bolt hole becomes a weak point, if there are no holes in the mast base then it has never been rivited before. I would use 3 rivits each side and maybe even a couple around the leading edge of the mast. If you don't cut the mast above the bolt hole, you might want to consider leaving the bolt in when you rivit and caulk the base, there would be no compromising of the structual integrity of the mast around that area, just don't forget to caulk that area as well.[/quote]
