I work in China near the factory and visited on Saturday i was so impressed. Defiantly going to purchase a 10m cat. Watched both your videos and understand the costs as my partner and I do a lot of shipping and costs are runaway.

I worked for horse trailer importer and i know there is a ton of perks like you dont just bring a boat in as the containers still have plenty of room, our boss claimed poor as well he could only just afford a 3 million dollar boat, new cars new house plus more, buy aussie built everyone the quality is far superior 😊

At that price , buy Australian! Keep the business here where we need it! You will save the freight , import duty , delivery costs in China , etc etc etc. There are plenty of very high quality boat builders in most states especially Queensland! Common guys lets get AU companies up and running long term!

Viewer from America here. First of all, I am in no way shape or form, arguing/disputing your numbers, nor am I in any way saying you are dishonest. But correct me if I am wrong, as of today, $163,000 Aussie dollars is $106,435 American dollars. So my issue is, why would anyone (in America) and I am thinking it would likely be the same in Australia, consider/bother to purchase a Chinese Hull? Yes, they are nice, but when all is said and done, a comparable American made hull, pretty much translates to a comparable price depending upon the manufacturer. And if you want to purchase a slighty used boat complete, you are looking at roughly half that cost (give or take). Granted, my comparable numbers are not exact, but I equate them to be within a narrow margin. It is a head scratcher to me as to why anyone (Aussie or American) would opt for the import boat. Am I missing something here? Admittedly, it wouldnt be the first time!😅

My question for you is: Where are you finding a comparable boat to his for $105,000 all in. He is quoting after taxes, electronics, heck even lines and gear. Find me a new boat anywhere near what he is offering for that kind of money.

I imported one to the states about half the price of building once locally

I think there is a big saving, not sure on the US market but nothing in Australia is cheap, we don’t have the competition in the market.

In Australia a small 5 mtr boat with 100hp Honda is going for $90 thou. Brand new and that's imported from new Zealand

Are there any carbon / kevlar boat manufacturers or only aluminum? What is the cost savings from ordering / importing china vs a local builder of equal quality?
