PRO-WELD BOATS .
Most boats are built with 5052 aluminum whether it's 80-100, or 125 gauge. There are a few company's, usually duck boat companies that use harder aluminum. Those are made from 5086 aluminum. The alloys used are magnesium, and or Chromium. The 5086 is much harder, and it isn't as flexible making it difficult to shape and bend.
