I feel terrible, in last weeks thread a number of us were trying our best to support the new start up. Makes us look foolish as well.
The worst part is there is people in the Performance boat industry trying like hell to make a go of it, get some excitement back into the sport and truly in need of everyones support to make it work. This hurts those that are not trying to take advantage. Maybe, we should look at the "little" guy, and let the big corporate types flounder. Seems like in the last year, they are the ones pulling most of the strings and certainly dont care about who what is around them. I realize it is "just business" but really is it? The "little" guys have passion, drive and the will to make it succeed...
I personally have a vested interest in seeing everything good getting going again in the Performance Boat world, our Museum project is an uphill battle and everytime someone takes advantage of someone in this realm, we have to work even harder to over come it. Guess we will just have to keep climbing that hill after this one...

It is very hard to find the right place to spend your advertising dollars and hope it the correct when you do. We did a 3 month deal with Power boat last month, this sucks!

I just sent them a check for the renewal/plus friend subsription last week. $21.97
They have not cashed the check. I just put a STOP on the check. It cost me $27 to do that. Well worth it. I really don't expect them to send the check back with a Sorry we tried to screw you note attached". Too bad, I enjoyed the mag and always looked forward to the next issue.
