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.


Custom boat builder (that I expect are pretty pricey from the description)

Read down the page to the boxed in "Standard Features"

"Hand soldered and heat shrunk wire connections"

I guess they think it's a selling point. Now can you just stop with this
thread?
