Custom build in China....Does this look like right..?

#1

Post by scott12 »

Hi guys...First post and already asking for help

I'm currently getting a 6.25m Centre cab plate alloy boat built through a Chinese company called Gospel.....the hull design is a Copy of an Australian design developed by Noble Boats....

I'm not sure how to add photo's so if anyone has a minute I have added my blog address of the build down below..

I was sent 2 photo's of the beginnings of the build but as can be seen from the last comments some doubt has been raised as to whether or not 5083 is being used, as the ribs have been folded to accommodate the deck plates...……..

So I'm wondering if its not 5083..what is it and will it be compatible with welding on 5083 checkerplate deck sheeting...

If anyone can shed some light on this it would be much appreciated...


TIA ... Scott

Is an easy way to attach photos.

Another way is to click on attachments bellow in the bottom of the full editor field and download the file from your computer.


I'm still looking for the image code for this :shocked: so I can use it on other forums, Thanks.

I wouldnt have my boat be built in china.

The sweetness of low price dissipates much sooner than the remaining bitterness of poor quality!

It should be very inexpensive, because it is going to cost a lot to ship a 20 ft boat.
Good luck with any warranty issues.

a lot of the components on the transport category aircraft we all fly on are made in China. Boeing opened a factory there 6 months ago.
my dad became a Toyota dealer in 1962, the 3rd in the US, i still recall his pals slapping their knees in laughter at the thought of selling cars "made in Japan". no one is laughing about that now.
