this one is impressive,
You can go bigger with aluminium. I had an alloy cat 25ft motorboat, great for parking up on the beach and easy beach launching without worrying about scratching gel coat. But being very light it wasn't a smooth ride, you felt every little bump.
Its downfall was electrolysis, during construction a packet of steel bolts got dropped between the outer layers, after noticing rust we cut out sections and removed them, but it kept happening in other spots and we never got them all, someone must of knocked over a whole packet of nuts and bolts and never bothered to clean them up, that little issue compounded into a bigger one and it ended up sinking the boat 10km offshore. I wouldn't hold that against alloy boats though, just poor workmanship in the build.
