I caurrently own an aluminum boat that I use in the pacific northwest with great results. The ride is great, low maintenance, economy, etc. I am wondering if there are any drawbacks to this type of construction. My thought is to have one built to use in the Sea of Cortez.
<br /><br />Aluminum is an excellent material for boatbuilding. A few years back I seriously considered building my own aluminum boat. Lack of welding experience stopped me. Unless you are building it yourself, re-fitting an existing vessel is likely to be significantly less expensive.
