Among other attributes marine-grade aluminum alloys those in the 5000 and 6000 series are naturally corrosion resistant. When exposed to air oxygenated seawater or fresh water aluminum quickly develops a tough transparent oxide film that is resistant to corrosion. The completed radar arch with uprights measuring 1-34 by 1-34 inches was then painted to match the boat.

Fortunately special brazen rods have been designed specifically to patch and fill in holes on damaged aluminum boats allowing boat owners to perform self repairs.
They drill two holes then while holding the conduit tight with a J-Hook the rivet secures the conduit then the second hole is riveted for filler. Be sure to use Tef-Gel on the rivets. Off topic - I decided it was too much effort and figured if Dave Mancini can sail around the world without radar that I can go without too.
