if your wanting to know who's building the best boat with the most high tech materials. the answer is simple. they'er all using the same materials( kevlar, carbon, s-glass, e-glass, ect. ) most are now using epoxy although polyester and vinylester have worked well for many years. having worked for some of these manufactures as well as others,they will all be happy to build a boat to your specifications or help you with what you would like to do.most hulls are also simular in design, though some differ between flat and rough water. the choice is mostly influenced by your taste in looks.

The Nortec's really have the looks down. And you are right asking what went into them. Some due diligence before you purchase is necessary. I have had glass and Kevlar. In the furture I will stick with Kevlar and Carbon etc I.
The Nortec's are as sleek as a new Ferrari. Me and my buddy were talking today and I am going to unload some of the hardware I have and go for a Nortec when they start hitting the secondary market.
I have a few buddies who have them and they have nothing but praise for the boat and people they had to deal with.
This boat just has sex written all over it.
