schlackoff, by your reasoning, because you can find information on the net
about Area 51, aliens must exist.

only the ignorant solder. Been so for nearly 40 years.

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.

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?

Ok, you did a little work for me to prove BB wrong. But on google, it's
actually pretty easy to find manufactureres who solder their
connections. How about another:

http://www.mitziskiffs.com/herald_review.html

"The wiring is first-rate, with all connections soldered for
dependability."

Or yet another:

http://www.sportfishingmag.com/artic...categoryID=282

" Wiring has heat-shrink tubing and soldered connections"

Or:

http://www.sailmarket.com/boat_of_week/11-8.html

A custom owner/built boat with "Anchor Brand stranded and tinned wire
with all terminals crimped, soldered and shrink-wrapped" which passed
survey with no exceptions, no recommendations, proving that a boat with
soldered wiring can pass a survey.

Or:

http://www.woodenboatshop.com.au/cru...peanspecs.html

"Bilge pump & Float switch: Automatic Rule 1500 with soldered tinned
copper wire and fuse"

I hope these 5 actual examples are enough to show BinaryBill that he's
wrong. Probably not though.
