Ok, I have read and some of the replies are valid and some are contrive? Anyway before I go any further, I can say that I have no direct involvement with these boat builder/sellers/agents, nor an owner of one. All the boat I owned are built right here in SE Qld as it fits my work schedule. My opinion of the the Nobel super Vee (cooy) is that of a first hand experience in one of these boat, 6.8m model.
Pros
* Built quality in many areas is similar or better than some of the big name here in SE Qld " reference to boat viewed at last year Brisbane boat show.
* It is a solid product and very affordable.
* The weldings are solid, and I couldnt find bog where u normally find them.
* The paint finish is much superior than local paint finish.
* For the $ you pay it is very good value.
Cons
* They also copy the Nobel problematic issues ie. deep Vees lean on it shoulder, water overflow kill tank when u got some weight = wet floor, and comes in the self draining hole at time, but can easily clear out with some cruising.
* The roof is built like a tank and weight as much as one, think centre of gravity.
* If you own one people who shell out on non chinese boat will always say they are inferior.
So in short, I would buy one if I didn't already have my boats, for the $ you save, as I don't earn alot and is neither made of money. It's a solid product and I dont buy into the "inferior chinese hype"
I have first hand seen sheds or building in china, what ever u want to all it, big and long enough that u can see the curvature of the Earth!!!
And the place is gear up to build one product and when it get to the pointy end, we just dont have the tech or people to compete with them.
In China, numbers counts, and the maths doesn't change wherever you are in the world
