This article was not a boat review, it was a fluff piece for a magazine
whose existence is dependent upon the advertisers for the same products they
are reviewing.

It is possible the boat is the ideal boat, but you will never be able to
tell from a "boat review" in a boating magazine. Anyone who uses a boating
magazine as a basis for purchasing a boat, gets what he deserves.

But unable to point out even a single inaccuracy, and unable to
formulate a contrary opinion,
you reduced your comment to your specialty, personal attack. Thinking
of buying a boat again, one of these days, Hurtwit, or are you going to
be one of the bitter old non-boating reactionaries with no purpose here
and nothing to contribute exept negativity and bile?

Chuck, I noticed not one derogatory comment about the 260 Defiance, nor
did I
notice a comparison to any other boats. How would you compare the 260
Defiance
and the 26' Osprey Fisherman? Or, for that matter, any of the other 26'
boat
made in the northwest. Is the 260 Defiance a better boat than many other
brands.
Why, or why not?
