Tracker Question

[DAVID MC CARVER]

I am planning to buy an aluminum boat and have heard that Tracker has had
problems with cracks in the aluminum, then problems with welders trying to
weld them. Do any of you know anything about this?
Thanks, Dave

Aluminum is a bitch and a half to weld. I learned this with a Delhi !

Get a Lowe. I have a SeaNymph 1467 and it is built ruggedly.

Only if you don't have the proper equipment, or skill :-)

I have a Tracker,, it has not cracked, but a friend of mine has his
cracked, at the transom


His boat is quite old (so is mine) perhaps they have fixed the problem
in new boats
