Weren't they aluminium?



Yes. They're actually not that heavy compared to a big plastic boat.

Fun bit of trivia is that they're still made. Grumman sold off the division to another company at one point but about 15 years ago, some ex-Grumman managers bought it and spun it out--and then bought the rights to use the Grumman name again from Northrup Grumman.
