Well I thought I would make a build thread for you guys. I know how we all like the pics so here it is. The boat is a 2070 mv from Alweld. I have already started it and it's almost complete. This has been a long terrible process from the get go. It all started about 4 years ago when we where coming home from crabbing and stopped at the Alweld dealer. When we stopped to look it was late on a Sunday evening the owner was there doing paper work after hours. We talk to him awhile then he open the doors showed us around the shop showed us boats they where working on so after all of this on a Sunday I thought if I ever buy a boat this is probly gonna be the guy I buy from. So fast forward to February 2013 I started looking at boats. I looked at G3 and sea arks in my area. But once I told those guys that I wanted a bare hull that was it it was very difficult to talk to those guys. So In March 2013 I took an 1.5 hour drive back to the Alweld dealer we talked awhile and I ordered my boat. Delivery was suppose to be late May early June no problem there that will give me the rest of summer to build it. So after paying them waiting till the end of June and called to see if they know a delivery date they where very slow at retuning calls if they even would call at all. So I finally get a call in the end of August that my boat arrived and they really need the room in there yard wanted me to get it out of there soon as possible. This really ticked me off after waiting a two to three extra months. So after getting the boat home I figured out what material I needed got that ordered and now it's almost hunting season so everything sat over winter. Once spring comes I start working on it get something's cut for welding and now my welder is really busy and doesn't have much time. Dang it. But we fit an hour in here and there he welds things in and I cut and grind get things ready for him. So here we are heading in to winter again and I'm still not done maybe next summer lol. Well sorry for the winded post I'll get to some pics now.
