For reasons unknown, there appear to be numerous calamity stories, especially on this side of the Atlantic, around
aluminum like a ship building material . These stories frequently go I like this : "I have a companion, who knows

Repairs and alterations to an aluminum vessel are less demanding [that implies less expensive too] than they are on most
boats built of different materials.
