I’ve been faithfully reading Power & Motoryacht for many years. My wife’s typical comment is, “Your boat magazine came in, guess I’ll see you in a while.” But recently I’ve gained a new appreciation for you and your crew of writers. You see, not long ago while I was complaining about the news media’s twist on most everything, my grown kids said, “You should listen to podcasts.” If you haven’t guessed, I’m past the halfway point in the journey of life and not quite on top of the tech scene. So, after some coaching on smart phone handling, I found the Power & Motoryacht podcast. Finally, my commute to work became a pleasurable experience. This is where the new-found appreciation came in; after reading the highly detailed articles and admiring the beautiful photos provided by your staff for years, I had somehow come to believe that you are part of the elite, ultra-wealthy set that can afford these exquisite floating masterpieces. In fact, after listening to your podcast, I’ve learned that you’re just a bunch of regular guys and gals that, like me, love boats. I’ve been boating all my life, and while I love a day on the water, I’ve often said, I like boats more than boating. Realizing that you and your crew are a hard-working bunch that made better career choices than I did makes me enjoy your magazine that much more. Keep up the good work.
