I know that in addition to cars, some Oppos also have a soft spot for planes, trains, motorcycles...but boats in general are just something I don't really ever hear about, even outside of Oppo.
(To be clear I'm not referring to yachts and massive stuff...just powerboats and I guess sporty stuff.)
I always liked how the above magazines (as well as CAR and Top Gear, mostly UK mags) always have a section that lists literally EVERY CAR on sale at the time of publication, everything from Suzuki to Rolls-Royce.
Is there anything like for boats? Or something that can give someone with no clue about boats an idea of what's out there? Is the market just not wide enough for that?

A good point, but I’m referring to “every boat on sale,” not “a listing of boats for sale.”
In other words, you flip open Consumer Reports, and it’ll go “Acura, BMW, Chevrolet, Dodge, Ferrari,” etc.
I’d like to see whatever the boat equivalent of that is. I don’t know any boat manufacturers at all other than like…Polaris? Sea-Doo? I’m probably wrong haha

I’m not 100% sure for an all boats listing, aside from various websites. I just remembered DuPont Reg from when I was kid.

Hey, sorry to respond to your month-old question but I think I found the answer. This was also a question of mine for a while.

WOW, thank you! Better late than never! This is the only topic I’ve posted on Oppo that I never received a satisfactory answer to, haha! What made you find this?

No prob! I recently became interested in boats, and just searched “boats for sale” on Google, scrolled through the first few links, and found this. Yes, better late than never.

If you ever come across a magazine or website that actually gives star ratings or a score out of 10, post back here! I’d love to know what actually constitutes a “good” boat and “bad” boat…sort of like a Ferrari vs Perodua kind of thing so I know where the extremes are in the industry haha

Wow, what a fascinating industry/website.
I thought this was really interesting; not a bad price for a boat that has more or less the same power as a Maserati, weighs less, costs less, still has Bluetooth (LOL): http://www.boattest.com/boats/boat_vid…
The article says it takes 1.8 seconds to “plane”, so I guess that’s how they do 0-60 haha. I didn’t know boats could spin-out either! There’s a picture whose caption says if you turn more than 11 degrees it’ll do so.

I like watching the reviews of the big 60+ foot yachts. Oh, the dreams...
