5. Taking Advice from Internet “Trolls”
When researching a boat purchase, be careful about putting too much weight on negative comments found on Internet forums. Writers often have an ax to grind or are upset with a dealer and have transferred that displeasure to the product. Some posts are even made by boat or engine dealers or employees against a competitive brand. In some cases, a legitimate complaint is no longer valid because the company has changed hands or has corrected the problem.



Be careful about taking advice from forum trolls. Some take great pleasure in mindlessly bashing brands that are not their favorite.
