BoatUS.com Launches Boat Groups ]

BoatUS.com Launches Boat Groups
(And Answers the Question:
Which Came First, The Chicken or the Egg?)


First, the good news: BoatU.S.com has launched a website with a long list of Owners' Groups to help people like you get answers to questions about maintenance, parts sources, installations, and performance from other owners of the same make and model boat. A Bertram owner, for example, can get answers to his or her questions from other Bertram owners. The same with Catalina owners, Wellcraft owners, Hunter owners, Chris Craft, Sea Ray owners—there is an initial list of over 250 powerboat and sailboat manufacturers. Even if you’re just thinking about buying a certain boat, this is the place to get started.

More good news: The people at BoatUS.com web page have tried mightily to make the site as user friendly as possible. There’s a lot of practical information for each manufacturers' group:
  • Boat Reviews by Jack Hornor for over 80 Boat Groups;
  • a list of the manufacturer’s boats for sale from the BoatUS.com classifieds;
  • a link to USCG recall information,
  • a link to the BoatU.S. Consumer Protection database;
  • and any other related boat links that might be relevant.

You’re not going to find a better place to participate in a boat group.

Now for the bad news: The site is brand spanking new so many of the Boat Groups don't have any postings. This is the chicken or the egg dilemma; you could be the first, in which case it’s liable to be lonely for a while. Be patient; as other people post their topics and answer others, you’ll start receiving their comments and questions directly by email.

If you’re already registered for the other BoatUS message board: just hit Login or Click Here. You do not have to register; your login and password for the other message boards will work here. If your computer accepts “cookies” it will automatically recognize you the next time you visit.  To sign up for your Email Subscription for as many Boat Groups as you want, just click the link for Your Email Subscriptions or Click Here.

If you’re not previously registered on the other BoatUS message board: just hit Register or Click Here. (You don’t have to register to read what others have posted.) One benefit of registering is that you can sign up for email subscription notices for whatever boat groups you select. Go ahead and sign up. (Don't be, ahem, a chicken.)
