Another advantage I can think of with this sort of thing is a much wider range of boats being covered. With the magazines, we just have to wait to see which boats are reviewed, and of course, there are many that are never reviewed - including the "builder modified" boats from kits and/or plans (for instance, I'm especially interested in Dr. Colin Calder's recently posted boat that he just built - hint hint - wink wink - Colin - are you reading this?). Great idea Grant! I would volunteer to maintain this page, but considering my complete lack of computer knowledge, I wouldn't advise accepting my generous offer.
