Having an openionated conversation with a fellow mate last night, we were debating the ranking of the boat built designs by strudiness. At the end we decided to rank the boats and we came up with:
#1: British - hard to beat the centuries of knowledge and the naturally rough conditions around the British isles, we thoughts Brits have built the strudiest boats

#2. Australin and USA - tied. We think, while sometimes "neatness" is lacking in Australian built boats, the 2 nations are equal in build strudiness, sometimes one would think Australian boats actually pull ahead in some respect

#3. French - despite the fact that Benatous are popular, we thought that French boats were less robust than the rest.

Naturally there are exceptional boats from each nation, but again, we all do have opinions. What do you think?
