Question: When does fabricating an aluminum boat become an Art Form.

Answer: When it’s in the hands of Kristi Benwell and her staff at Liquid Metal Marine Ltd.

Liquid Metal Marine was part of the team that built the 26 foot Express Cruiser ( July 28 Onboard article).
The fabricator, who Kristi work for left the area in 2000, so, Kristi saw this as an opportunity to start her own shop in Sidney British Columbia and has been at it for the past 16 years.

I can’t say enough about this dedicated team of certified fabricators and apprentices building vessels from 9 feet to 35 to in both standard mono hulls and rigid hull inflatable designs.

If you’re looking for something special in a recreational boat or you want a commercial boat built for your specific needs, then have a look at the Liquid Metal’s website.

We cruised northeast on a 15-knot beam reach… perfect catamaran sailing conditions, watching the hazy shapes of the islands colourize and morph into crescent beaches, jungled ridgelines and rocky outcrops.
