One of the challenges this group has faced, for many years, is that it

And just what is wrong with the contributions from experienced boaters
who own outboard/sterndrive trailerable boats, Chucky? Do you feel their
opinions are not worthy? Are their views less valid than yours? Truth be
known, many of these boaters you view as inferior actually have much
greater and varied boating experiences than yourself. They have traveled
boating worlds you never will.

Interesting that my observations so inflamed you and you were unable to
address directly the questions posed. Could it be yet another case of NG
NPD? Do you really feel holier than thou, Commodore?

Your "questions" were based on the lie you created when you snipped my
post to claim I was stating that outboard or sterndrive boaters are
somehow "inferior". What's to address, besides your long list of
ridiculous personal responses to a lie that you had to go out of your
way to create?

I still find it very telling that you're still not able to address
directly the very simple questions posed.

Skipper, you're following a bad example pulling Harry's tricks.
