Hi, great build! sorry to revive an old thread but I’m looking into doing my 14 footer with all aluminum as well, but have a question on your build. What size and gauge aluminum did you use for framing and the deck?

Hey you start on that Orlando 15’ yet? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Awesome man. One of my favorite builds on here. Hey, what kind of aluminum did you use as the siding? (the strips you welded all around the inside of the boat that you welded the framing too?) Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

If you do second guess your rail decision, with your welding skills I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to make a gate with the existing rails so it would be easier for people to get in n out Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

Looks good what kind of rustoleum paint did you use? I've seen bottom and topside paint. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

I think he did. I think all his framing is welded. I don't know what welder he used maybe tig or mig welder. They say tig is best for aluminum. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

your welding skills are superior! what filler did you use on your spool gun? did you preheat the aluminum before every weld? im going to weld my boat here in the next couple weeks, would like some tips if you can give any.

Awesome I'm about to work on a 14' v hull I just bought. Can you primer and paint over it? Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

What did you use to coat the outside and inside of your boat?was that to prevent leaks? Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
