Aluminum has become the choice structural material of modern yacht construction. It doesn’t leak, absorb water, delaminate, deform or can suffer of osmosis. It can’t rust, and won’t spark, or combust.
Aluminum yachts are lightweight, strong, corrosion resistant, and non-flammable. The ease of workability, welding and handling make aluminum hulls economical.
