This was once an excellent resource on boats and boating. It isn't,

It was that. I came to the group in the mid 90s as a mostly sailboat
guy and learned a lot about power boats from this group in my early
years of that activity. Still learning of course but not so much
here.

People who come here with reasonable questions and attitudes still get
reasonable answers for the most part, but the talent pool is greatly
diminished. That's as much the fault of web based forums for the most
part, which many people seem to prefer for various reasons. It does
tend to fragment the knowledge base however.
