I've been picking up Sport Boat at the newstand, and may subscribe. It's too bad about an icon like Powerboat Magazine going out of business, but is not surprising to me. I stopped reading Powerboat years ago. Every boat they had was megabucks, and not affordable to the average or even most above average buyer. That's not the way the magazine use to be. I was wondering how long Powerboat could keep up their megabuck parade, before people got bored. The car magazines know to test a range of cars in various price ranges. Sure, it's fun to read about the super performance cars that I'll never be able to afford, but I'm most interested in cars in my price range. It's even nice to read about the econo cars once in a while. So far Sport Boat seems to provide a range boats at various price points. Let's hope they don't fall into the Powerboat megabuck trap.
