Generally made by those not from the USA
We dislike when it's made in their country but okay with them moving here and just building it in this country for feel goods.
Mean while rent, insurance, and labor cost are exponentially more here and are at peak highs. You live in this area, thr cost have rocketed up.
This isn't the USA it use to be. That warm and fuzzy feeling shipped out a while ago.

I am not a prospect for a new Statement CC, but as an educated consumer I would be extremely reluctant to purchase a million dollar boat laid up in Brazil. I was not aware that Brazil was a premier boat building center/country with access to the best and most advanced composites, layup materials, technology, techniques, and requisite experience and knowledgeable workers to perform this task.
I wish Mr. Sweers success, but I would never ever buy those boats built in Brazil.
There are many other domestically built boats that are similarly priced. May the purchaser make the decision that suits his or her needs/budget.

I know I’m not comfortable to giving $1 million of my money for a boat built in Brazil.
After 50+ years of being around boats I think I know a thing or two, I may not know it all but this is something I’ve never heard of before my entire life, subbing construction to a Brazilian boat builder.
Are you an investor in this operation? I assume your friends with Mr. Sweers, hence your defense.

are you going to defend the expertise of the Brazilian builders is that what I understand?

I am going to give them a chance instead of blindly wrighting them off.
Again. Your happy to have a brazlian worker built your boat here and stampped with USA but seem to have a problem with the same worker building it not in the USA for zero reason other than cause "Merica".
