Down here in Greece almost all the recent years models are failing exactly like this i would say regardless of maker's name.Me i payed 5 years ago 600 euros for a 220 LALIZAS HERCULES which started falling apart after 18 months with no more than 30 hrs of use.I started regluing everything untill the transom started failing as well.Took it to the chandler and 3 months later got a new one with a reinforced transom. 18 months later it started the same way with rowlocks etc.It seems that the glue everyone is using now is s**t, or might i say chinese.Meanwhile an old zodiac (30 years for all i know) that i got for 50 euros is still going strong.Go figure..
