You are comparing a tractor to a Ferrari, both do what they are designed for very well,but are worthless in the other's field.
I would imagine it it's quite fast.

I'm just flipping you chit! I was referring to the new style Idaho boats have gone to center seat stick steer and the bentz nose. Nothing wrong with your custom weld. It's a sharp boat!

I hear ya. Nothing is cheap anymore. It hasn't been too long ago that you could have a custom-built jet for around 2000 to 2500 per foot. Now it's six to 7K and up. Sorry for the off-topic posts guys. Good luck in North Dakota!

Whaaattt... 2k per foot to weld aluminum? Shoot let me get my weld certs and ill spend ALL my free time welding for 500 a foot... get me all kinds of customers. Ive been watching a few companies finally do what at least seems like the common sense thing to do, and take the economy into consideration, and offer products amd servoces waaayy below what everyone is charging, and theyre all slammed. Granted theyre doing more work, but theyre bringing in ALOT more revenue. hopefully alot more companies will figure it out.
By the way, i have a friend in ND that said if i got my CPWI card ( certified pipe weld inspector) he can get me a job for $600 a day 6 days a week. Nice!!! but i told him im not even a certified welder so i'd have to do that first. Then he said he doesnt think i need to be certified in anything to get my inspector card. Anyone know if thats true?

Those prices are for a finished boat. You can easily have 40k into a motor and pump nowadays!

Both pics are the same boat. 25' Hudson, 8.1 marine power with a 212 pump. I had that built in 08' then sold it last year
