Yea ole rivet tin boats are tough to deal with.
Because of the tapered head Id prolly go with carriage bolts,ny lock nuts and a splash of 5200.
Because its a small tin boat, upward water pressure is minimal, because of weight of boat.
Id geaux with whats easiest/cheapest
Plus the larger surface area, head of a carriage bolt will give ya more strength

Can you elaborate a little on this? I am just not familiar with carriage bolts in this setting.
What would be the benefit of them over the machine screws?
