[QUOTE="Specknreds, post: 186512, member: 801"] Check out https://www.gaudetboats.com/index.html We have several local builders building them. I've never run one but I do see them around. I've heard a lot of people love them but have also heard a lot of complaints. One is the abuse they take in "big" water. Aluminum doesn't flex like fiberglass which leads to metal fatigue and stress fractures. On the other hand I work for a company that makes RBM's and Coast Guard roll over boats. They are all made from aluminum. [/QUOTE]
