Marine Review started as a positive protest 🙂 against the many marine websites where everything is great and everyone pats each other on the back.
Honest marine reviews are few and far between. We are fans of Panbo, one of the best marine blogs out there, and we wish there were more like it. We try not to criticise unless we can suggest something better. If no one says it, how will manufacturers know they could do better?
We are not sponsored by anyone. The products we review are our own, friends’ or on loan from suppliers with no strings attached.
About me
My name is Kaz. I have sailed all my life, mostly in Europe and the Middle East, on everything from Maxis to Jeanneaus, motorboats, sailboats and dinghies, from 9′ to above 50′. I trained in electronics engineering, have a full component-level electronics lab and have built my own NMEA 2000-compliant controller. I like open standards, which is why NMEA 2000 frustrates me: it lets manufacturers lock you into their own brand instead of making everything work together on YOUR boat. Sadly, it is still the best we have.
If we haven’t scared you away, comment and challenge us. If you think we are wrong, we will listen.
