[quote=P.M.]Wolfman,
I do agree with you. There are areas on the Nacras that I prefer aluminum rivets, including the mast base, boom ends, spin pole ends, older style rudder castings to tiller arms. The newer style rudders have no rivets. You could get away with no rivets on the mast base, in a pinch if you had to, which I've done.
As I have mentioned, I carry a rivet tool. I also have a very complete inventory of 3/16" SS and aluminum rivets in all grip ranges. Including in the inventory is 3/16" SS and aluminum washers, which come in handy as backing in unique applications. I also carry 1/8" aluminum rivets in several grip ranges. [/quote]
