Martin,

After fishing with Peter Gorinsky, in Costa Rica and Nicaragua, I purchased
4 or 5 Gatti rods (6 years ago.)  And the 9' 10 wt and 8' 6" 11wt
are still my favorites for those wts.  I sold the 6wt & 9wt some years ago.

The rod in question is an 8' 4wt (2Pc) and yes it fell victim to a
fast closing electric .car window.  I only lost 2" ( I said the appropriate
blessing) and discovered it made a great short rod for the mangroves.
Unfortunately, I could not horse fish from the shoreline with this rod.

I eventually got around to contacting Sandro.  As the rod was several years
old and I did not have the original warrantee, he was kind enough to
replace the tip section, provided I sent him the broken tip and a nominal
fee.  

When the replacement came the UPS guy brought a 4' tube to my door actually
bent 90 degrees at about the 2' mark.  He sheepishly said, "I guess you
don't to accept this!!"  I confirmed his misgivings.  :-)

So back the tip went and the rod went to the storage shed, where I
rediscovered it along with all the merchandise I recently sold on the list.

I need to contact Sandro again and finally get the top half of my rod.
(now, aren't you glad you asked!! )
