Default Speaking of Southport/New boating-fishing magazine online reviews Southport 28 CC

There is a new review of the Southport 28 CC in the premier issue of iboats.com's new online magazine. The chief contributor of the new digital pub is Ed McKnew, the author of the Power Boat Guide, which gives them good credibility in my opinion. He does the review of the Southport as well as many of the other stories. I think they want you to subscribe (free) but here is a link to the actual issue: http://www.iboats.com/iboats_review/

I'm already subscribing to it.
Sure would like to see something other than a rave review in a magazine be it boat or marine product.

There is absolutely no review... just a listing of specifications and options of the boat. Am I missing something?

There is a review, although very short, and obvious they were just copying the info Southport gave them. Even the picture is from the Southport website. The writer didn't take a ride on one, as there are no specs or reports. Click on corner of magazine page and turn to page 24.

My point was that there was no opinion in the so-called "review", which fails to make it a review. You and I are in agreement on what is there...
