Hello, I'm building a boat and need 2 10' sections of aluminum tubing. If you are wondering the length I'm using a modified cat hull with two outrigger floats. Looks like most production boat firms offer shorter lengths. Just seeking source these parts. Thanks for any responses.

Nacra 18^2 or call your local metal supplier and buy 24' stick to make your own.

I just bought a 20ft stick (as mentioned above, 24ft also common) of 4in OD / 0.125 wall 6061-T6 aluminum tubing from a metal supplier. Easy to find in any major city. Cost me $105. I'm building new beams for my Nacra.
