The aluminum boats I have been on in the smaller size range tend to be light for their size and pound like hell....

Have you ever been on a black lab marine or pacific skiff?

Or are you talking about cheap riveted aluminum like sea nymph, Lund, etc?

I'd imagine they are light and therefore pound for their size.

SeaArk specifically in the mid-20ft range/

A Pacific/Black Lab is 1650lbs at 19.5ft
My key largo 176 weighs more than that with no t-top or any added stuff...

Good for fuel efficiency and trailering though

Last boat I owned, I kept on a trailer at a marina in Groton CT. They were a Key Largo dealer, they always had a few in stock, I always liked them.

Welded aluminum good for banging off rocks too, and for being lower maintenance.

And the 20 footer on the One 3 website, says it weighs 3,600 lbs.

You're right, Pacific's 19 footer says 1650 lbs.

You'd know better than me if the 3600 lbs could be right, and if so, how you'd get there...

Quintrex?

My guess is the 24 will pound ( 16 deg ) at stern and you’ll need sand bags up front.. but it is pretty and save $ on buying wax ….

No wax, probably no soap, just a pressure washer.

Spoke to owner of company, he said there's a "multi year wait" for build slots.

Good for him.

yeah Quintex

there was a thread/post on SOL a couple of years ago about a guy wanting one an only one .

I still see them around on the water

that marina just before Charlestown Beach has one ><
