Evinrude FICHT beats out Yamaha in JD Powers survey

So, Gould, are you suggesting Yamaha, and Mercury didn't pay for inclusion in the survey? How about the others? Think they didn't pay to play? The survey company doesn't just wake up some morning, yawn and stretch, and say, "I think it's time to do outboard motors!" What happens in these situations is that the survey company has salespeople who are continuously pitching prospective clients about the incredible value that the marketing research will bring to the company's business. In fact, the survey company will be glad to conduct a survey in the prospect's industry for the small sum of just $XXXXXX.XX. The surveys are performed for individual, corporate, clients. The questions can easily be shaped so that the answers are predictable. Suppose that Anchor Company A agreed to have J.D. Pourboy Surveys do a survey among boaters to determine what sort of ground tackle people prefer. J.D. Pourboy Surveys will charge Anchor Company A a $10,000 retainer, $10 apiece for mailing 4,000 surveys, and another $10k to tabulate the results. (The whole project can be completed by two part time employees in about a month). Now, when JD Pourboy shows up at the Anchor CO office wth survey in hand and says, "Well, we ran the survey. Everybody says your gear is crap and they'd rather use a concrete block on a kite string than one of your anchors and rode"..........you suppose the Anchor Co is going to be happy to write that check for the final $50k? No, no, no. So, how does J.D. Pourboy make sure that Anchor Co come out mile ahead of the competition? Anchor Co is the only maker of anchors that includes a buoy and a release line as standard equipment. Questions are designed that get affirmations from surfey takers that ease of release and the ability to know the anchor's actual position are critically important and make a product better. Another technique is the not-so-blind mailing list. Anchor Co A has the names and addresses of several thousand people who have bought a single Anchor Co A hook, and even the names of several hundred people who have purchased two or three over the years. (satisfied customers) Using the mailing list provided by the Anchor Company itself as a major portion of the survey mailing is a sure way to get a high percentage of favorable responses. When Consumer Reports does a study, you need to buy the magazine to get the information. That's how they make their money. Every pay anything to see the results of a JD Powers Survey? Ask yourself; "How do they make any money?" I participated in a Powers survey on my Yamahfa F225. It was straightforward and met generally accepted, legit survey standards. There were several ways to respond to different parts of the survey, on a 1-20 scale and on an excellent to poor scale. I see a lot of these kind of surveys and I even write some from time to time. You're way over the top on this Chuck. |

I think you're so thrilled that JD Powers has come up with something that refutes Karen Smith you'd chisel into the nearest rock if you had the tools handy. :-) You should know better, Harry. Particularly since you have "helped write" similar surveys. The fish you catch depend entirely on the bait you use. |

Lies upon lies nothing more!! Harry does not & probably never will "own" any OB nor boat. BS absolute BS he slimes his way into the graces of real boat owners, then pretends it's "his" boat till they shop him & tell him to **** off. It happened very quickly with the lie lobster boat but because the real owner of the Parker is obviously a busy bloke it's taking longer this time, so the liar of all time has a problem he can't explain why the boat isn't used, so he reverts back to his original lie that he's using "his" other lie the custom naval architect designed & custom built 36ft lobster boat. There were several ways to respond to different parts of the survey, on a 1-20 scale and on an excellent to poor scale. Gee he's seen the survey form?? probably not!! more likely it's been in a boating magazine where he gathers many of his lies. I see a lot of these kind of surveys and I even write some from time to time. You're way over the top on this Chuck. Another "I am" lie from Harry!!! Is there no end to his BS!!! He can't write, has never written nor understood anything here, he just pastes deceptive lefty articles or plagiarises others in the NG. He's near illiterate proving once & for all the reason he can't substantiate any of his education lies from 3 yrs of med to 4 degrees 2 masters is because it's ALL untrue. I have to comment this time even Chuck, an actual real writer, can't stay silent, good on ya Chuckster. K |

Karen,
I know for a *fact* that Harry owned an early Opti. I don't agree with his OT provoking. But I know what I know too. -W "K Smith" wrote in message ...

I have to comment this time even Chuck, an actual real writer, can't stay silent, good on ya Chuckster. K No Clams you "know" he came across an old Opti manual that he may or may not have doctored, he's the master of fakes see below; that's all & he probably got it from the real owner of the seapro, because he never was. Several people checked rechecked & checked again at the time & none of his BS stacked up as it never will. That's small beer compared to lengths he's gone to in the past to try & carry off his deceptions. Posted pics of the "under construction" lobster boat hull true he's full of it, posted pics of the Hatt 43 then someone recognised them as stolen from a website, whereupon the liar claimed his was a sister ship so it didn't matter that he'd tried to pass them off as his own boat, then the infamous false pics of the seapro along with your manual no real evidence at all, just more proof of his lying & the lengths he'll go to. He claimed it was registered in his "wife's" name that's why nobody could verify it, yet no evidence at all. In the real world it's excluded by the self serving rule, as it should be. People have tried over the years to "independently" verify his claims & everyone that's each & everyone has drawn a blank, no rego records, no evidence of even attending any of his claimed education places (don't be fooled by his privacy crap). Harry was as famous as his fabricated father according to him, remember we're dealing with a "semi professional" racing car driver in Harry:-), yet zip nothing not a zot!! Posts like he'd rather face Cape Horn a third time than go to sea in a Bayliner, come on you're a real boatie Clams haven't you noticed this bloke doesn't even take baths??? The father's biggest dealership in the NE?? ran for 30 yrs??? the father even got a fire tug welcome when he entered NY harbour having crossed the Atlantic (in winter of course I mean why not?? once BS is unbelievable it can't become more unbelievable:-)) in a 22 ftr with a couple of OBs on it? He even accused Mark of committing phone offenses against his wife trying to prop up the wife story till he went too far & claimed the FBI were on to whereupon Mark called a halt. Of course the obvious question was if his wife had phones in the name Krause then how come the claimed boat records could never be found??? liars just go away when cornered as he did on that occassion. Truly don't be taken in, not ever, if Harry says it's raining look out the window yourself. No matter I'm nothing if not fair he can lead us to independently verifiable material any time he likes, what is it?? don't know yet; let him try something & we'll certainly have a good look at it.
