Check this sled out ... guy I was talking to while back sent me these. Had the boat fabed out of Orange I think. Probably heavier than all get out, but I bet he's got other "visions".

Nice looking lines. Actually a pretty nice looking shear line. My only concern, if it were mine, might be weight distribution and the effect of the pods on planing attitude. I hope it won't did down in the bow.

How fast did the 36 push all of that aluminum?

I very rarely see catwalks like this boat on an aluminum hull for MM and I figure its due to the weight and/or need for storage. How much weight would catwalks add to an 18 foot hull if they were only as wide as the angle of the sides? Would that be about 6 to 8 inches? Any other negatives I'm not realizing?

I'm positive they didn't put a MM on this rig ... for sure it's now sporting an Optimax or something ... but yeah, I'd bet all that metal adds 500 pounds to the boat between the deck, catwalks, hatches and pods.

Just thought it was a cool "concept" boat ... rip all that yuppie shit off of there and you could float it will a mud motor for sure.

I cant quit thinking about duals on a flats style alum boat with all the catwalks and flat decking, no rails or anything. I would make for a kick a$$ fishing rig.

That boat was built by Bosco Fab. It's a friend of mine that owns this boat. It has a 90 Yamaha on it. Fishing rig, not a mudmotor rig.
