First, let me say that I have chosen to design my own boat with Kurt Hughes and have it built here in the USA, but that's my personal choice to get the boat I want... Making a $400,000 to $1,000,000 expenditure for an overseas boat, where manufacturing defects after delivery have to be repaired by some shipyard somewhere else in the world, where having a face to face meeting with the factory over the issues requires you to fly halfway around the world, just does not make sense to me... I have toured the Endeavour factory, hung around on the factory floor talking with the workers and watching them, and had dinner at the club with the owner and his son... These are quality people... They build a quality product here in the USA... If I were going to buy a commercially built power cat in the mid 40 foot range it would be an Endeavour, no question... Highly recommended by me... denny
