 Custom aluminum bass boats
Thinking about getting an aluminum bass boat made. I really like the Ranger RT188 and I am leaning towards a design like that, I would rather get one custum made where the boat would be beefed up a little more and maybe handle a 150hp. Anyone here got some pictures of some? Would like to get some ideas.

 Re: Custom aluminum bass boats
You will pay more than buying one of the premades. You'll have a say in the layout, though. I've got a couple of pics of a buddy's I'll post in a bit.

 Re: Custom aluminum bass boats
I'm having one built in the next week. My metal just came in last week and probably take 2 to build it. I have a 115 tiller going on it but could handle a 300 if i wanted to put one on it

 Re: Custom aluminum bass boats
Saw one of Casey's bass boat builds for sale on LAS a couple weeks ago.

 Custom aluminum bass boats
I've had fine glass boats in the past. Having a camp it's a pain going there and trying to tie it up where it won't get scratched.

 Re: Custom aluminum bass boats
Still got a good bit of detail work but she looks like a boat now.

 Re: Custom aluminum bass boats
Charles Leonard of Pierre Part or Casey at Sportsman Fab.
This is a 21' and some change with a 225 that would run low 80's that I sold a while back. Crimped bottom with a pad. Hydro steering, very stable. Could run 70 and let go of wheel.
