Please feel free to post and share our site with all your boating and boating friendy friends, relatives, and co-workers.

We welcome your feedback as it is our goal to make this site your site and make also to make it as easy to use as possible.

Thanks again,
HB

FYI for anyone new that signs up starting right now, you will have to answer 1 or 2 very basic boating questions before you can register. This is going to help a ton with the spammers. If you dont know the answers to the question(s) don't worry, send an email to info@hotboat.com and we'll help you out ;)

Thanks for joining our site.

We've had a couple people get upset because they tried to login under their old screen name.

Just so everyone is aware, this is the new hotboat.com, not the old hotboat.com. Unfortunately you will have to re-register and if you're old name is not in use, you are more than welcome to use it.

Thanks for your understanding.

Bump and welcome again to our newest members.

Just a reminder that we are still in the test mode. Things will be changing and evolving over the new several days. We are listening to your comments and requests in an effort to make www.hotboat.com (http://www.hotboat.com) your favorite boating site. We will be adding tons of content over the next several days and making some changes to the layout of the forums.

Our front page is still in the works, but it will be up shortly.

We will be adding a video section that we hope you will enjoy.

At some point a store will be added. Our goal is to keep prices reasonable and still provide quality products. Right now we're working on t-shirts and soon hotboat.com hats.


Welcome once again and we sincerely hope you enjoy www.hotboat.com

Welcome again to our newest members. We are a little behind schedule as far as some of the changes we're going to make and especially in regard to our front/home page.

Our site host had some issues earlier in the week that set us back a bit. If all goes well, which it should, we should have everything done by early/mid week next week.

If you are interested in doing an article on your new or re-build project, send me a note.

Thanks again and welcome to www.hotboat.com

After a week of struggling and waiting I finally could join this forum!

I wasnt on the old Hotboat. I found this forum thanks too Instagram and Facebook! I think the problems with my account was due too my residence. I live in Sweden ;)
Im mostly on the Swedish Boat Forum BoatSite.se but I want too expand and go global.
I love boats and I´m sort of a gearhead.
I have a Swedish made aluminum boat called Linder 460 with a Merc 50 tuned to 60 by a swedish company. Tested out some new propps and lifted the engine abit so now it does 39.2 knots or 45mph for you americans ;)

Hope too meet some new interesting and fun people over here! Would you like some pics of some Swedish Offshore Racing that i took this summer?
