Chucks articles about the boats he sees are as good as any I have read, and when he reposts them in rec.boats, they always stir up great on topic posts.

Some of them are fun to read, as I have commented from time to time, but they're advertorials, with the emphasis on "ad." I don't disagree with you, but those "ads" or "reviews" are most new boaters introduction to the different boats on the market. As long as people understand (and I think most readers understand) they are not critical reviews of the boats) they do give a potential boat buyer a list of boats to review in detail at the dealer or boat show. These fluff pieces or "advertorials" are not limited to boating magazines and their staff, it is that way in 99% of the catagory magazines (ie Photography, HiFi etc). As I said, I am glad Chuck and the boat magaszines continue to write their "reviews", they make for some fun reading and keep the magazines in business. Chuck does a great job of stirring up on topic posts in rec.boats, and at times we really need some stirring up. -- Reggie That's my story and I am sticking to it! |

Jim Jim, The articles are as good as any I have read in a boating magazine, but the real benefit of the reprints is they stir up some nice on topic discussions. It doesn't matter if you like the boat or hate the boat Chuck is writing about, those threads a great for rec.boats. I am glad he posts them, because even if I gloss over the original posts, I always enjoy reading the thread. For the most part, the threads remain on topic, entertaining and informative. -- Reggie That's my story and I am sticking to it! |
