Like I said - provide ONE manufacturer who uses solder. If it was
superior, then some comapanies would solder, and use it as a sales
tool to demonstrate higher quality than their competitors. Hinkley
uses solder? Oyster uses solder? Swan? These companies would solder in
a heartbeat if it was better.


Boat builders are basically carpenters, not electrical engineers.

When it comes to things electrical, boat builders have a tough time figuring
out how to get out of the rain.
