As you may know I recently replace my hotwater service with a lovely plastic / S/S 40 litre hot-water system, I note it's made by Quick and is supplied by Sigmar Marine. I recall ordering a Quicky anchor Windlass for my last yacht.... It was a complete copy of the Muir Australian made Windlass.
Are they the second world China manufactures Or what?
Anyway I highly recommend these products a far more superior product than isotherm and the Australain made decommissioned Woodys hot water service!
Italy has a huge problem at the moment with Chinese Sweat Shop factories. It is mainly with clothing manufacturers but your HWS could very well be "Chinese" made.
Italy is owed $4billion in tax revenue from money that has been earned in Italy but sent to China. They can't recover it because the Chinese banks are basicly firewalled against the rest of the world.
The new HWS looks good by the way.
