Hanse 418 or Jeanneau 410?

I am looking to purchase one or other of the above two yachts. It would be used for coastal cruising with the possibility of some blue water cruising between the islands of the pacific.
My very general thoughts are these. Whilst the Jeanneau has more bells and whistles (which to me means more gadgetry to fail) has a sweeter interior layout and finish, has the much talked about full walkaround its big negative to me is its cabin stepped mast. Also, without putting too fine a point on it, it is French built rather than German built.
The Hanse on the hand has a more robust and no frills persona and has that added security of a keel stepped mast.

They will both be fine for 90% of cruising. However I wonder which of them is going to suffer first in extreme conditions.

I would really love to hear your comments on which you would prefer and without cost being a consideration.
