Fred,I think you should have called the guys at Metan to do your concrete slab reinforcement with their aluminum grid,it would be much stronger than that cheezy wire stuff that you used(.LOL).
Seriously though I have to agree with you Fred, I don't know how much strength this aluminum grid supposedly offers.Other than providing a good foundation for fasteners,I don't see it being worth the price.
Hell,most of us here are using 30-40 year old hulls just the way they were built with no problems.

Here's a few links to the article and pictures that were in the Soundings magazine piece.
