IF A BOAT COULD TALK, WHAT WOULD IT TELL YOU?
BoatU.S. Online Consumer Database Available

For 20 years now, the BoatU.S. Consumer Protection Bureau has
maintained the only nationwide database of consumer complaints and
safety information reported by boat owners, the U.S. Coast Guard,
manufacturers, marine surveyors and marine technicians.

"Whether you are buying a boat, trying to determine if a problem on
your current boat is widespread, or just curious, we can help," said
BoatU.S. Consumer Protection Bureau Director Caroline Ajootian.

The database contains thousands of specific reports about boats,
marine engines, boating products, dealers, marinas and related boating
services as well as information about how, or whether, the companies
involved responded to each complaint. snip

The database is located at snip

All I found was a shameless attempt to sell membership, harvest email
addresses, postal addresses, and boat ownership information.

Oops. You're right. If you aren't a BOAT/US member they want you to
join to access the information. Sort of like the Consumer Reports
site, isn't it? (annual membership is $19)

Sorry.
