Re: 36pd on 16/48 fully customized weld-craft
The stock hull weighs only 280lbs and is .125 alum. I been trying to kill it but can only manage to dent the bottom slightly. it has 8 crimps on the bottom so it does not slide at all! I will be posting some pics when i get in from offshore. Also getting lined up to put a EVT stage III on it and then we will see how it runs..

Re: 36pd on 16/48 fully customized weld-craft
Are you talking about a stock 36? If so, I would have to see it to believe it. 31.5 unloaded is pretty salty on this style hull with a stock 36, and 27 with a 3 man load is phenomenal. Furthermore, I've never seen a .125'' 1648 that weighed that little. But hey, if you say so!
