Default Aluminum hull cost

What the cost on a 16/48 alweld or similar hull? Anyone buy one recently?

Thanks. Just pulled my OLD fiberglass marshrunner off trailer today. Crack in bottom. Think I'm gonna fiberglass it and try to finish the season with it since I just dropped 3 grand on ac at house. Next year will either be a new hull or bite the bullet and get a center console.

I priced having a marsh runner built last yr and they were comparable to aluminum boats if you wanted to buy a new one

I have priced them before also. Just unsure of how well built they are now. I have got years of use out of the one I have though.

I run a 1648 alweld vhull with deadrise at the transom. I run through some nasty slop sometimes and I would never put a marshrunner through those conditions, the one I've ridden in has a ****load of flex also. Trim the bow down with the vhull in a chop and it makes a noticeable difference and I've never gotten wet in my boat either. This past week I ran from Cal pt to joes with a 10mph south wind, made it there and never questioned it.

Do you have any pictures of your marshrunner?
