sounds like a wise business decisions...i know if i was in your biz with a big multi-franchise operation like u have would definately use what is offered here...i have seen your ads in PMY in the past..and from my perspective your header ads here on SFC has gotten more of my attention than the printed PMY ads....

hell some mags i hardly see anymore...(example Power & Motorsailing)...and if they are still in publication they have gone more raghauler oriented or just stopped the presses!!

Smart.
with the cost of fuel these days people are not gonna go window shopping anymore. They are gonna shop on-line, so as long as its easy to do (find the boat) then I would bet that your gonna sell a ton of boats of the new boat section.
good luck
