[QUOTE="CarlF, post: 108726, member: 1159"] Weight depends on alot of factors, cant really say. Normaly, size for size, a glass boat is heavier. But that depends. Take a lightweight AL boat and put bunch of framework, decks & stuff init and it can get heavy quick. How much will it draft? Once again, lots of factors, such as hull design, weight etc.. In most cases, draft will be same or close to an AL hull of the same shape, length & width. Working with a glass hull is similar to stitch & glue hulls once the hull is built.
