It may have been a ploy to get more subscribers to sign up to receive boating mag.

I wondered why I got the magazine in the mail. Thought maybe I got drunk one night and subscribed.

If you begin to receive magazines that you subscribed to while drunk, you may have a slight drinking problem........:drink: Waking up next to a fat chick is one thing but waking up with a new magazine subscription........that is taking it too far....

I was already subscribed to Boating and PowerBoat both (along with BoatingWorld and PerformanceBoats). I'm waiting to see if I start getting two copies of Boating now :party-smiley-004:

Actually I don`t mind getting BOATING.. its something different. Reading reviews of boats 90% of the population can`t ever afford including me wasn`t too interesting.

With all due respect (and not that it really matters now because Powerboat is gone), but having worked for Powerboat for 17 years and having written (for better or worse) most of the boat tests, I just don't recall a "Spectre glowing review in every single issue."

You're right, Powerboat, which had the words "leading performance boating magazine" up top on every cover, did cover product "most people" can't afford. But then, most people can't afford performance boats, period. Judging from what you've written, boating is a decent publication for you to receive.

So ... cool.

I really wish someone would..... Not that I expect a settlement. But this is a typical bait and switch.
