Does anyone make an all stainless steel boat? Seems like something like this
could give Triumph a real run for their money......

When I was a kid, my Pop had a fishing boat that was Stainless. It was
constructed by two stamped pieces each being one half of the boat
riveted togather down the center. It was sort of narrow and we powered
it with a old Evinrude 7.5 hp outboard engine.

The make is lost to history, The thing weighed a ton so to speak and
was done in by a newer 7.5 merc engine that was not worn out as the
Evinrude was, and thus had alot more power. The boat went faster and was
beat on waves, (yes I was guilty as was my older brother for this) until
it started leaking alot where there were other reinforcments that were
riveted on the bottom from side to side to help keep the floor from flexing.

It's aluminum replacment was larger and weighed half as much.
