You really need to look at an Aluminum Boat Manufacturer.

For the abuse and use they are the best by far and they are easily configurable to many different setups as there is no "set" mold design. In boards, outboard, diesels all easy to do.

I agree that aluminum boats can be quite tough. Aside from Metalshark's 40' fearless, I have not seen any designs that are made for high speed. Most are quite heavy, slow and very expensive. If there were a builder in the SE that makes offshore race style hulls with comparable performance, enhanced durability over FRP all at a competitive price point, I'd be leaning heavily that way. Unfortunately, I have never heard of any such manufacturer. Any ideas or references?

Pantera could have been the builder.
