re: Patching small holes and leaky rivets in an aluminum watercraft

I would say weld over the rivets, but in a canoe that's probably not necessary. I patched a few holes in my aluminum boat with some marine grade silicone from the hardware store. It worked well and has held up for a few years now

That is the most permanent option, however it also adds a lot of weight to the boat.
