Where to have boat hull welded??

Postby jar0023 » Mon Aug 15, 2005 2:42 pm

Need some recomendations. Thinking about buying boat from coworker. Took it out this weekend to watch some Canada's move around. Filled with water. Upon further investigation, we found bunks rotted out. Hull has been bouncing around on couple of uprights. One spot worn through several other about to wear thru, couple of gouges. 1650 Alumacraft all weld. .100 hull. Anybody know a good aluminum welder that could do this and do it anytime soon. One place I talked to today said 3-4 weeks to work it in.

Thanks in advance.

Call Novelty Machine Works in Jackson. They have done some work for me in the past.

Shack's welding in Jackson. They have done a good job for us in the past

Lynn's welding in Vicksburg. They build some of the best boats around for a living. They have welded up a few of my past boats.
