Could you be a little more precise? I assume you mean you've found some construction details lacking or weak - such as? I'm not trying to be picky, it's just that I've heard these types of generalized comments before (about IP's and others), and am really trying to get specifics, particularly from people who have spent a lot of time aboard or studying the boats.
