January issue of Hot Boat, anybody get it yet??

[CheckmateFever]

Whats the deal with Hot Boat lately?? I haven't recieved my January issue yet nor have i seen it on any newstands!?!? Also, haven't seen anything on that new Hot Boat Classics issue either. So is Hot Boat in trouble?? Just wondering what's up, it's really cold and very snowy up here in the northeast, Hot Boat helps me get through the long winter with out my boat! :confused: :confused: :confused:

Rumor has it that Hot Boat is going under. That's why there are so many people here last few days. Lot's more posts and a few old ones poping back up.
Thanks for the memories!

I guess it's a good thing that my wife forgot to renew my subscription for Christmas.

Tried to call HOT BOAT main office today and of course no answer and the phone mailbox is full. WHAT A FINE COMPANY

I bet my magazine is in the mail with my T-shirt!!!!!!!!

Dont forget all of the people that got screwed by them by signing up for subscriptions at the Firebird National Finals in November, not a single new issue since they took all of our money!

I miss the old days of ***boat but Karma seems to be coming back around pretty quickly and we old ones don't want to miss the demise of it all.

Hot Boat has a magazine?
Had to get it in one last time, but now i guess it is a legit question :(

Not any more!

Mine came today.
It looks pretty thin but there's a nice 33' Caliber on the cover and two beautiful women.

Mandelon/Tom Brown,
You guys mentioned that you actually did receive your January issue of HB. Can you confirm this again for me because no one else has mentioned receipt. I just spoke to Caliber One and they hadn't received a copy either, but expected the cover shot to be of their 28-footer, not a 33. Does the issue have an article about the Outboard Drag Boat Association in it?

They're just yanking your chain -- there is no '09 January, February, March, etc., etc., issue of Hot Boat. Sorry!

[Tom Brown]

Indeed, I was just being a jerk, TLow.
I picked a Caliber because I understand they used to receive special attention from the magazine, back when the magazine was in print.
I haven't received a copy.
By the way, I would find it odd if they, or Performance Boats, were to say anything about the ODBA. I think the ODBA is great but they don't own part of the magazine, nor do they help sell any of the stuff HB or PB advertisers sell.
Magazines exist only to sell the products of their advertisers. Nothing more.
Kind regards,
Tom :)
