7 months old How is Hotboat.com doing?

[WMC]

Lets see your input? What do you want to see more of? What do we need to do to get our members to post more, start threads and share their stuff? Thanks William

[Menace Marine]

I like it. Good content good people and minimal drama. The girls on boats section needs some work. That being said I haven't contributed to it.

[WMC]

I would start by learning to spell "months". :speechless-smiley-0

Thanks I'll fix that. What else can I do to make this site better?

Yes we are working on that. Catalina is coming up and we are sponsoring Brady Hoggins and will be getting some great helilcopter video and shots.

[GRADS]

Oh yea and maybe organize the events reports and photography stuff a little better to make it easier to find..... maybe thats up to the thread starters to figure that out better???? or mods move it as they see fit.

Keep of the GOOD work. Hot boat is here to stay!:drinkin:

[HB Vic]

Technically it's 6 months lol.

In that time we've switched hosts twice and are about to go to a dedicated server any day. In hindsight I should have just went dedicated. Live and learn.

We've had a lot of site issues. And are still working on making the site more user friendly. What I've found is people who are not familiar with the boards have a lot of trouble maneuvering around. We need to make this process easier.

We appreciate everyone on the site and promise to do our best to keep the content fresh and up to date.

We're still only 6 months old, but we're growing up fast. So we appreciate your patience.

And we're absolutely open to all suggestions. So please fire away!

Thank you,

HB

RT99 is doing it for others. Maybe I should pressure him. Nope that's not my style.

Great site and great people.
I have had a few questions, with my limited mechanical knowledge, answered and given good advice.

You mean my iPhone pictures of your trailer aren't cutting it? ;)

[K-034]

I don't think you need to change a thing it's perfect :action-smiley-035:

[H2oSki2Fast]

Maybe some write ups on the events, and not just pictures. A story will also get you further along with Google.

I kind of agree with Grads about some drama, not all out insulting but more banter.

Grads2112 was banned because of drama

[RogerThat99]

You know I can hear your, right?? LOL. RT99 is working on a project that has a deadline, so that takes precedence. :yes:

[renegade]

I like this site its added to my favorites, keep up the good work!!:thumbsUp:

[GRADS]

I kind of agree with King Of Folsom about some drama, not all out insulting but more banter.

....;)

[Speeddmn]

Maybe you should do a repeat article of my boat in my avatar. It was in HotBoat magazine issue in Oct. 2000:wink:

[riverrunner1984]

Just thought of something....
What about a "General Tech" section where general technical questions can be asked that do not pertain to any types of boat.
For example, I have posted tech questions in "The Sandbar" that pertain to batteries and battery bars that could easily go in a general tech sections.
Like I said, just a though, I could always keep posting questions in the sandbar section.

Happy Friday!

I'm liking it, a lot of good info. Nice and easy going! It's real nice with no drama and other bs. Thanks!!

[hbchgirl]

It's all good! Love the "no drama". Keep up the good work! :action-smiley-035:

Is Hot Boat also sponsoring the Catalina Wine Mixer?


I think the West Coast Section needs another sub-section for upper river (Needles, Mohave Valley, Willow Valley, BHC & Laughlin)

[28eliminator]

HB is a refreshing option.. Give it time. Your all doing a great job.

You should really get either the apple or samsung. Those phones are so cheap now with 2yr agreements. I was just looking on sprints site, galaxy4 $149, Iphone5 $99, and if you're ok with an older iphone4 or 4s or galaxy 3 those are $0, just pay the $36 activation fee and monthly smartphone fee. Its really worth the investment, and you'll love the tapatalk app, which is a one time, $2.99 fee to install.

[ChumpChange]

I'm likin it. Have some events I'll be at the next couple I weeks that should blow some minds.
