Dreams - make them good and make them big.
Im not sleeping too well of late and so to while away the darkest hours of the night, ive turned my thoughts away from counting sheep to a mental excersise of designing the perfect ship for the ultimate circumnav voyage.

Im lookin for some input of ideas and am debating the pros and cons of Ali vs Steel hulls.

Some of the main issues to be covered are structural integrity, corrosion, maintenence etc.

Which material would best serve the purpose, and why?
