I just bought one of these Zini Sport boats on ebay. This is the one that is in 3 pcs and pinned together at the hinges. I think I got piped.... The aluminum is either 22 or 24 guage, it measured .062", I deducted .010" for paint thickness. The U.S. Coast Guard rating sticker is in question. I have also gotten in touch with the original designer's of this boat and they are annoyed that this boat is currently being built in China. The wood that is glued to the inside of the transom is a piece of 1/2", or even 3/8" plywood. If I had seen this vessel before I bought it, I wouldn't have.
