OUTBOARDS RULE!!!! :)

You know what's kind of interesting (not trying to get into the great
relative value debate) to me?

I'll bet I've seen at least 11 boats for sale on lawns that I've not
seen before.

nd they are all in the smallish, inboard gas powered 24/28 foot category type boats - lot of Bayliners, one or two Stamas
and one with twin 454 Crusaders.

Being nosey as I am, I've stopped a couple of places and the common
issue seems to be gas milage on boats.

s in can't afford to run





them.

But of course none of this has any impact on boat sales in the great
Pacific Northwest, where the summer boating season is one day long.

Perhaps you should subscribe to a source of information about boating in
the Northwest rather than making pronouncements showing your lack of
knowledge thereof.

Here, this may help:

Write them a letter, maybe they'll send you a copy.

You googled up a really old addy and phone number.

I wouldn't normally volunteer contact info for our publication in the
NG, but since the door has been opened the info might as well be
correct.

For the last several years it has been:

PO Box 17002
Seattle, Wa 98127
206-216-0023 phone
206-216-0026 fax

When are they going to get a web site? I couldn't find one, but I'm not
overly perspicacious.

We do have a really terrible website. The publishers put both of their
boating periodicals on the same site, and it serves doesn't serve
either title very well.
I tell folks that "www" stands for "world's worst website" :-)
