Hey I just wanted to get on here and not just start throwing questions out like other fngs. My name is Jesse I live in central texas all I think about is duck hunting and everything that goes with it. I am a autocad drafter for a electrical contracting firm and I also like to weld. My buddy is giving me a 10' jon boat this week and I want to get it titled and build a longtail for it maybe a 6.5 blue clone ive been looking on the threads trying to find some help any links would help any pics would help. hopefully well see ya on the water(but not to close i dont like geting peppered) |

well to answer that i don't have a aluminum tig welder my buddy owns a sign company and can build them out of aluminum but they will riveted on and i know what everyone thinks about rivets but system he has he says they wont leak but (and i think the same way you do "if" it does than the foam will add the flotation. we may rethink all of this when we get there but for now thats the plan. |
