Was the quality of construction the same on both of those boats?- Hide quoted text -

Both laid up with infusion process, both with Kevlar reinforced hull.
Systems installation and quality of stainless steel slightly better on
the US built boat. *Quantity* of stainless steel greater on the
Chinese boat.
Interior joinery and workmanship, fit and finish good or better on the
US made boat, woodworking especially noteworthy on the Chinese vessel.
Engines and major systems all US made, both boats. Wiring outstanding
on the US vessel, and even though not quite up to the same level still
admirably accomplished on the Chinese.
