You are asking for alot.
Thick enough and big enough to carry your anticipated loads. But not so big as to be too heavy.
Solved.
Next question?
Seriously, maybe you thought you were asking a simple question. You were not. A little more definition, no, a LOT more definition would be required.
Ok sorry guys. Not sure what size and thickness of square tubing to use and thickness for skin on hull. 6-8 people so like 3000 lbs max .for people and gear.
I don't think you understand that your question does not have a simple answer. The hull and associated structural members of a boat is more complicated then "xxx" thickness.
Really...
Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
