I live in Idaho and have been trying to find a hull for a while now and I just can't seem to find anything out west... What would it cost to ship a hull from Nebraska or Florida? Starting to think a build might be my only option. What is a estimated guess for a 5x10 or 6x10 basic build? I got a quote of 211 for a sheet of .125 5x10 5052.... 6061 was 410!!

Thank you! Sorry about that as I'm on the fence of building or shipping

No problem, if you decide to build you can just start a build thread. Just trying to keep the place a little organized. I know some of the guys have had hulls shipped but I haven't myself.

Okay... I've been studying your hull build you did on pirate 4x4 forum... Anything you would change? What's your guess on price for the hull?

That build is on here more detailed. If i remember correctly all hull materials, sheet goods, struts, and angles were right at around $1000. The only thing I would do different is maybe add two more floor struts and use the fancy gunnel channel.
