I've been working on another boat project and looking through various >manufacturers websites I've found that aluminum water pipe might be the
best solution for one aspect. I want a 5052 pipe a wall thickness
greater than the available tube I have found. Schedule water pipe seems
to be a solution that exists. A few manufacturers do list it on their >website, but I can't seem to find any "retail" at any of my usual
sources. In fact very few seem to even have thin wall tube in 5052.
The first question some might ask is, "What's wrong with 6061? 6061
water pipe is available as is thicker wall 6061 tube." I want 5052 and
6061 isn't 5052. If I wanted to settle I would not need to make this
post.

Diameter, schedule/wall thickness, length, total quantity?

Are you a vendor seeking to quote or do you know of a retail (online)
source for 5052 aluminum pipe?
I've spent a bit of time looking and I think its as much what is available
to me as it is what size I would really like. What I would really like is >5052 extrusions to fit the application, but what I have found to fit the >application that is not proprietary is all 6061.
1-1/4 schedule 40 and 3/4 schedule 40. About 120 feet of each.
