The Benefits of Aluminum

Aluminum boats offer plenty of perks compared to models made from other types of materials. First, they are lighter in weight compared to wood or fiberglass models. The lighter weight makes aluminum fishing boats glide across the water faster, which can especially come in handy during a fishing competition. It also makes these models more buoyant and easier to transport. Some models that are 12' long can weigh less than 200 pounds. You and a friend could transport the boat with ease.

 

Second, aluminum boats offer impressive durability. There have been aluminum alloys created that compete with steel in strength! This sturdy material can easily take a beating from rough waves. The hulls offer a high yield strength able to endure plenty of damage before repairs are needed.

 

Third, the oxidation process of aluminum fishing boats protects the hull from the corrosive effects of saltwater. There are coatings that can be added increasing the alloy's natural resistance to saltwater. If you hope to fish in saltwater, an aluminum fishing boat is a great option. 

 

Finally, aluminum boats are made from a material that is easier to work with than other metals. This makes the manufacturing process much less costly for the builder and those savings get passed down to the buyer.

 

Types of Aluminum Boats

There are plenty of aluminum fishing boats on the market, making it easy to find the perfect option for your needs. Drift boats are great for cruising around rivers due to their narrow bow and wide flat bottoms with pointed sterns. They can swivel around their own centers, making navigating rapids easier. Pontoon aluminum boats are great for fishing in larger groups due to their larger size. They float on two or more hollow tubes, making them incredibly stable.

 

Of course, these are only a few of the many aluminum boat types available. If you want to learn more or look at aluminum boats for sale, visit us at The Sports Center.
