"Double ditto. The Phoenix Cruiser is well constructed against leaks and has a more manageable price tag IMO."
Not even close, Phoenix cruisers (which I completely agree are very well constructed), run $40,000 to $50,000 more than a comparable Nexus as your link clearly demonstrates.
No, not correct, Nexus vacuum bonds the walls in multiple layers: first the outside layer (fiberglass), then a layer of Azdel, a layer of foam insulation, and then another layer of Azdel. These are subjected to a vacuum and the resin/glue is injected. Here is a picture of the vacuum press I took while touring the factory in Elkhart:
The roofs are framed in with steel trusses and filled with foam. The front and rear end caps are solid, one piece fiberglass and the windows have automotive seals that are all but impervious to leakage.
Here is a shot of roof under construction:
