Aluminium
Fishing boat
| Weigh |
The aluminum shell is lightweight. The density of aluminum is 2.8 and the density of steel is 7.8. They are much lighter than steel and also lighter than GRP. Lighter hulls provide better performance (speed). |
Strength
The strength of aluminum is probably the most attractive aspect of aluminum boats. Simply put, the likelihood of hitting a puncture in the hull is far less likely with aluminum than with fiberglass. |
Length of use
Aluminum is one of the least corrosive metals. Aluminum alloy does not contain steel or iron, so it will not rust. Aluminum undergoes oxidation. But the resulting hard aluminum oxide surface layer prevents further corrosion of the underlying material. If properly cared for, an aluminum boat will last for generations. |
