old aluminum boat

Hi,
I just bought an old 14ft. aluminum boat and I want to seal the rivets
to prevent leaking. What should I use? Will a high quality silicone
work? Should I seal them from the inside or outside of the hull? Also,
do aluminum boats weaken with age? Mine is about 30 some years old.
Thanks!
