Sorry, your post seemed to suggest 'crappy'
In Response To: I never used the word crappy ()

"My wife and I were sitting on board and started to look at the interior workmanship. We were amazed at how poorly it was put tighter compared to say our Islander. Nothing fit quite right, there was a lot of plastic trim that didn't fit, joinery work that had very obvious gaps and looked like different kinds of wood. It just looked like it was put together very quickly and not very carefully."

That reads crappy to me with carefully chosen words.

I feel that a very important part of boat building is the ability to get to any piece of equipment or hardware that may need maintenance and thought an IP would allow for that in the design. Hell, on our old Gulfstar we could get to every piece of hardware with a little reaching & contorting. Except for the packing gland. It was stupidly installed directly under the shower pan and was impossible to do maintenance on without removing the pan.
