That's quite a feat making that out of aluminum. Looks great from the bottom. The rest of it should be recycled. I wonder where he got an idea like that??????

Wow,that's some very nice craftsmanship.A friend and I did some pretty extensive rebuilds on two 18' aluminum Starcrafts that involved cutting the backs out of them and fabricating completely new transoms and splashwell designs.
I thought we did a pretty nice job,but compared to this guy we are just pikers.Then again,I thought I did a great job on my Tsunami,but compared to some of the stuff that I've seen done by people on this site like Strick,I pale in comparison.

An aluminum Seacraft,now that would be an awesome boat for big bodies of fresh water like the Great lakes.Fish guts,blood,dirt,no problem,no pretty paint to worry about,no teak to take care of,just a garden hose or a car wash to maintain the aluminum.Light enough to trailer easily, yet just heavy enough to give a good ride.Throw an enclosed cabin on it,make it around 25'.It could compete with the west coat aluminums like Hewes craft etc.
