I've seen this China boat builder in our yacht magazine, especialy their 26 footer. Nice design, low price, I think there has to be some catch.
Now I'm checking their website for more info http://en.fareastboats.com/FE26.html, not much pictures, no interier.
Ok I'm searching for more, and in their photo album, they have some pictures of the building process from their yard.

This is how their build their boats http://en.fareastboats.com/images/3012.jpg ?

Perhaps he just wanted to overcome that plastic nut lock, but you can imagine, how the nut could looks after?

I would want to see some independent reviews first. BTW, I expect the spreader hardware in that pic is for one of the smaller boats.
