[QUOTE="wingsnhammers, post: 322012, member: 9821"] Chances are that a plywood/glass boat will be much heavier than an aluminum boat. That would make for slower speeds on the water and would put more stress on the trailer. On the other hand, I'm sure you would be real proud to build your own boat and then putt around in it. I almost built my own plywood/glass boat for duck hunting and fishing. I decided against it for the reasons mentioned above and the fact that I would sink countless hours in getting it built and finished. Now, I just sink countless hours in trying to get my aluminum boat "right". :roll: [/QUOTE]
