Looks nice. The only thing I noticed, the pictures at the bottom I had to scroll up or down to see all of the picture.

I agree, I heard the real emerging market is the 16 -21' v-drive market. Thats what needs a fancy website! Everyone loves blown gas / blown alky flats and hydros, so and big turbo cruisers...

No forum? Or want to add later? Site looks nice and clean. Center consoles remind me of Florida, and white/light colors is the first to mind for anything FLorida

agree top nav is too big. and the instagram photos div needs to be constrained so they dont make you scroll.

It does shrink a little when you begin to scroll, but it really needs to shrink more.

no forum, editorial / social media only. If I do add a forum button it would link to a section on rdp. I’m not managing more than one of these rightnow.. lol

Does membership come with a free tramp stamp, or is it a prerequisite? Asking for a friend😉

At the bottom to go to the next page you have to click the number twice. Once just lights it up blue for some reason. I know it’s nit picking but that’s beta testing right. Lol.

Would you guys prefer the "sticky nav" just go away completely?
Click to expand...

I wouldn’t. At least on none of our high end sites we don’t. It’s there to make money not show pretty pictures. Gotta keep those CTAs in plain view at all times.

Is this site primarily for phone use ? Seems to be the trend.
Click to expand...

No. It should look good on every device. I have dual 4k screens, a standard laptop, and my Samsung S8. The only thing I don't have is a tablet, but there so F'n many tablets out there (and they all different screen sizes!) it's tough to scale to them all. So I just focus on the most used devices.

I like it too. But RD is the final word here...

Is the Instagram feed ok for you now? I have a lot of different ways to display it...

That works better. I was picturing it doing what this webpage does. https://www.boatshowdubai.com either way works. I actually prefer what you did. I'm viewing from a laptop.

Good, thanks. That's a pretty cool site as well! There are so many tricks you can do with CSS, you can get carried away with them sometimes.

I wanted this site to be super clean, so I kept the effects to a minimum. Are you having that issue that @SKIDMARC is having? I think it happened once to me, but I can't really remember...

Yes there is.. I have spent cubic dollars on content for this thing already, and am happy to finally see it coming to fruition.. Now to get it finished, promote it, and monetize it and turn it into a business of sorts. :).
