Default Speaking of North Korea...

Speaking of North Korea, I'd be surprised if there are any recreational
boats in that country at all. Ol' Kim probably goes boating in
something armor plated, with 50-calibers mounted on the decks, and a
Kevlar clad crew.

Chinese boats, even mainland Chinese boats, are pretty well accepted in
the marketplace these days- and many of them are decently or better
built. I suspect that anybody trying to bring in boats from North Korea
wouldn't find a receptive market right now, and it wouldn't matter how
much boat you could buy for how little.
