Thread: The word ***boat...and why I am upset

    I receive four magazines pertaining to boats. Three of them I receive on a regular, timely fashion. The other one is like a 68 Porsche; it decides to start and behave when it wants to.
    I have never written a rebuttal to a magazine article before but was so distraught and amazed by the apathetic comments in the opening ***boat article that it has at least prompted me to write me feelings about it on this board.
    Sounding the False Alarm under Observer's Seat, for the most part seemed like an agnostic child in the belief that the sky really isn't blue and the world round.
    The pent up anger erupting in this article seems mostly childish and lacking of true substance. To say that an organization named American Hot Boat Association was riding on the coattails of "Hot Boat Magazine" because of the word association of the two is absurd and extremely self-serving.
    To bash anyone to the point that this article did is both unprofessional and lacking of true journalism skill.
    Hot Boat Magazine in my opinion is nothing short of a glorified advertising forum with tidbits of helpul and relevant information regarding boating and all that enthralls it.
    I do however continue to enjoy the boats that I will one day own and the gadgets that keep me coming back to this sometimes skewed magazine; and for that, I am grateful.

    I agree completely!
    Sounding the False Alarm under Observer's Seat, in this issue was cocky, immature, off-base, and lacking class. I found most of it to be offensive towards to the very boaters who have taken this magazine to it's current level of success.
    I do enjoy the photos of the boats, and I like the effort at the back of the magazine to show the boats of it's roots. I was very disappointed to see that Sounding the False Alarm article though.

    Don't subscribe anymore since there might be 2 paragraphs of useful information in the whole mag. You can get better pics on ***boatpics.
    Good for the bird cage though.
