[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 420836, member: 15636"] To me, too thick for boats, ~ 0.093" is ideal. You also NEED to know the alloy. Most tin boats are 5052 alloy - [i]bendable, malleable, and work hardens. It has very good corrosion resistance, especially to salt water, and can be easily welded. Its high fatigue strength makes it an [u]excellent selection for structures that need to withstand excessive vibrations[/u].[/i] To me that's got "tin boats" all over it! [/QUOTE]
