Newport,
The arch is new. Using aluminum on boats is not. The only negatives I have seen is that salt water can pit aluminum depending on the coatings and how it is used. Valiant builds most of their stuff out of stainless steel. A lot of weight and expense though.
I will get some pics for you very soon. Will take a very long weekend on the boat this weekend and should be able to give good feedback.
