| There are no Consumer Reports that you can look at for customer satisfaction and reliability data. I would love if they had the resources for boats and motors that they do for automobiles. We mostly rely on personal experiences and hearsay to form our opinions.
Recreational boating sales will approaching $9 billion this year. Information on things such as quality/problem frequency and customer satisfaction data is absolutely available to those within the marine industry.
At the same time, consumer access to this information is almost nonexistent. Consumer Reports makes ratings and recommendations on anything from Guacamole (Sabra Classic) to a new truck (Toyota Tundra), but not boats. If it was easier to get, we might shop boats and motors a little bit more rationally and argue a little less emotionally. But for now...King Kong smash Data.
