Not sure that is the feeling of all members of this entire message board. Take a look at some of the original members
and big contributors on this board over the years. Many have left, many just don't bother to even post any longer here.
Regardless of what brand boat they currently own. And it is not just because they "move on" or "life changes"
This site was once a good resource for daily boating information, now it is nothing more than a social media outlet,
disguised as a boating message board. It's a shame. Thankfully, some of the good information that was shared here in previous years is still available with the "search" function.
Eh, everyone has their own opinions on stuff. I've said it many times here, that there isn't anyone on this forum I wouldn't raft up to and have a beer with. The trick is, you just can't take what's written here too literally. Some people tend to write how they talk, and that sometimes doesn't translate very well to the person reading it.
But I do disagree that this forum is just a social media outlet, questions still get answered, links provided, tips, tricks, and work-arounds are plenty. Just because the posts don't read like a shop manual, doesn't mean it isn't useful. Sure, when winter is upon us, we tend to get a bit silly in the things we post, no harm there. We're just trying to pass the time til the first splash of spring.
