RunRiver, already too much stuff made outside of us/canada borders for the reason you're contemplating building boats out side of the USA [to try to make them cheaper for the consumer],however you have to think of the future of many workers in your contry loosing jobs to foreign products.I don't even buy clothing that's not being made in canada or the states anymore.The quality of garments for example ,are inferior from India or China for that matter.Boats will be the same.Most of the Trawler type's are made in Taiwan for example.Nuff said from this penut gallery http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif
