[QUOTE="rcaircraftnut, post: 463870, member: 24380"] Got her home from the welder yesterday. While it will be structurally fine, I am not happy with how he welded it. Looks like he used aluminum stick welding rathur than a TIG and a spool gun or a solid rod. Either of the last two would be the preferred welding process for what was being welded. However I quickly got over it when he offered me a new project boat. Looks like I will be starting on a StarCraft V hull soon. Forgot the year. Its around 18 feet long. Didnt measure it. Needs all new decks. Possibly a transom but it looked servicable in every area I could access to see it. Will find out once I tear into it. So as soon as I get the StarCraft done, this BassTracker I am building now WILL be for sale. [/QUOTE]
