So do marinas put glowing reviews for themselves at times? Yes, I'm sure some do.

That's the problem with a system like this, self-interest gets in the way of truth and accuracy. It also happens, to a certain extent with Apple's App Store, although there are procedures to deal with it there. We witness it on this very forum frequently but most times the members see right thru it and call out the guilty, or just ignore what is blatantly obvious.

I think I'll stick with info that's been vetted by professionals and/or created by companies' whose continued existence is predecated (sp) on accuracy.
