They must have different FC hulls in New Zealand.

The boat across the canal from me is a Canadian built FC and it is weeping rust down the top sides.
The owner paints over the rust once a year, but it always comes back.

A real ugly eysore.

He is trying to sell the boat, a 60 foot pilot house ketch, hoping to get $25,000 for it, but no buyers so far.

A boat like that is what gives FC boats a bad name.
