Panther it sounds like the Tenshock Mini Mono kit would be right up your street, it comes with everything in the ARTR for $25 less as they are not putting in the build time. Just add radio and battery. As with the ARTR this will come with a 2s motor as standard, so if you would rather use 3s you have to ask them to exchange it. While not strictly needed, I would also add a CNC prop to the order.
They also do a hull/hardware set if you have your own electrics, but it is only $42 less than the kit, and the Tenshock 1515 Viper motor is worth a lot more than that and you get an ESC and servo thrown in with the kit too.
Ecomaster also sells everything needed, and with some discussion could put together a complete package for any of the boats he sells.
While some of them are made in China don't mistake any of these for a TFL RTR, none of the hulls are likely to fall apart in normal use. With the riggers you always have the chance of snapping a boom if you hit something, but you wont break one on the water by yourself, and I have seen dozens of mini monos crash into each other or have buoy strikes with nothing other than cosmetic scrapes and dinged props.
I cant speak of MHZ hardware, though I have one of their hulls I don't have any of their hardware, but the others mentioned are great. As long as you remove the wire drives and oil the ballraces in the shaft at the end of each day you will maintain driveline efficiency for a long time.
