| Aluminium welding is probably the major stumbling block for most metal boat-builders and one of key reasons behind to choose steel as a boat building material of choice. It's generally more expensive to weld aluminium and it requires a very different skill set on the welders side. However, if one can afford a decent welding machine and have a professional welder in hand... as we do... In general, however, its not so bad and even the CEO and the CFO were able to do the 'B' type ISO 10042 (the best) welds during the trials. However, it has to be said, that despite the top quality 'B' class welds CFO/CEO were capable of doing, the internal quality CTOs control unit did not allow any of these welds to be performed on the actual Joohee R14's structural welding. | ||||
