They are probably all union:)

“As I said yesterday, the Isabel is based in Newport at the Newport Shipyard for longterm maintenance, upkeep and charter purposes, not tax reasons”

"couldn't find an American builder"

One of the finest yacht builders in America is the Hinckley Company right there in good old Maine.

Kerry wanted the boat built cheap.
