I have a Bed head straightener and also an Amika(the ones from the Mall)Do either of those have real ceramic plates?Please AnswerI am trying to figure out which one I should use more often because my hair is extremely damaged.Thanks
Investing in a CHI is an oxymoron, they work alright, but just as well as many other brandsBut the CHI has bad wiring, they just stop working for no reason, you cannot take them out of the country and have them work on return, and the plates can snap off, even if you take good care of itIf you are going to save up for anything save up for a GHD, or something that is worth the moneyYes the plates on a BedHead straightener are ceramicIf your hair is damaged the only thing that you need is a thermal styling spray, the iron isn't going to help you.
Don't write off the alum boat yetIt all depends on what you want to use the boat for and how much money you want to spend I would go with the alumboat if, the rivets are tightMy grandfather fixed up an old alum boat years agoIt was a heavy built boat that was apparently not used to muchThe rivets where tight with no leaksHe put in a new floor with a casting deck and an old 1974 25hp EvinrudeThat thing would flyHe had very little in it and he had no trouble selling it a few years later for way more than he spent on itIf you opt to fix up the tri-hull then you will spend more fixing it up and will need a larger motorResale will be toughDo not expect to get all of your dollars out of it.
The aluminum boat is worth about $1.40 per lb at the scrap yard, the fiberglass one will cost you around $75 to 200 to dispose of at the landfillI'd scrap the Starcraft, and use the dough to start your restoration fund for the tri-hull.
If one has a solid transom and the other doesn't, pick the sold transom boatin the 70's, aluminum hulls were riveted not welded, and by now the rivets will be leaking somewhatheavier boat is more stable and better ride than aluminum, but obviously more wear tear on the tow vehicletri-hull is a very stable platform, but it will pound you to death in any kind of chop (hits the waves like a cannonball, vs the swan dive of a v-hull)inside in worse shape might not even be relevant, if the floors/decks/stringers have any soft spots, it's all gotta come outta there anywayI'm partial to fiberglass boats myself, not sure whyHope that helps.
If it's an early '70's fiberglass boat, I would probably go with that oneFiberglass was still somewhat new territory in the early '70's, and most builders were overbuilding just to be on the safe sideThis means that the late sixities and early seventies glass boats have a reputation for being solid and strongTo be honest, I know nothing about metal boats.
