Boat and Designs – Materials is the Most Important
There are many who just don’t know what building a boat entails.  They are structures of various sizes designed to float on top of water. It doesn’t really matter what type of boat it may be, they all serve an identical purpose one way are another. They can be used to carry material, individuals, goods and/or products. Boats and designs of boats have evolved in a manner that makes transportation convenient and extravagant; depending upon the occasion and purpose.
When you look upon shores, marinas, ports and even homes you can’t help but notice the different variety of boats in the world today. There are race boats, sailboats, boats for cruising (cruise ships) and even special type of boats design to be used in the Olympics. Each one of these boats serves a very valuable purpose. This is why extreme care is taken into building boats and designs of boats by manufacturers and software designers. However, if you want a boat to last and remain afloat, the material in which you use will play a very vital role.
Something as simple as a sailboat can be built from wood, aluminum, steel or fiberglass. However, most sailboats and boats in general are built from wood. The other material will play a role in the building but it’s highly unlikely to find a sailboat made of anything other than wood. Plus wooden boats aren’t as expensive as others. 
The aluminum boat can give wooden boats and designs of some boats a run for their money. They aren’t very costly; plus they’re lightweight, durable and their lifespan is unmatched compared to other boats. Not to mention they don’t require very much maintenance in the long run.
 And finally, there’s fiberglass. This is another material used to build boats that’s not high maintenance like the wooden boats. However, the only downside to fiberglass is that it’s susceptible to corrosion and prone to melting upon chemical exposure.
