I am thinking of having my bare aluminum sailboat hull built by a
shop. If my time can be better spent making money paying them may be
best. Anyone have tips, suggestions, or experience with any builders
that do aluminum? I am looking for yards in North America only.

Thanks

Topper Hermanson has a good rep:

You might ask Dave Gerr, as he likes aluminum and has designed quite a
few aluminium boats:

While, like all professionals, eventually he expects to get paid for
his time, he'll let you pick his brain for a while, no charge.
