Re: Interesting sailing data

That seems a lot more like marketing data than sailing data.

And does he pronounce the names incorrectly on purpose?

Re: Interesting sailing data

Maybe the use of "sailing" as a Google search term is dropping because people know more about filtering their searches themselves than they did before. If I want to look up America's Cup, do I put in America's Cup" or "America's Cup Sailing"? "Virgin Islands bareboat charters" does not have "sailing" in the search terms either. People have learned to be more specific in their searches. "Sailing" is too vague and will provide results that are not desired, so people don't use it.

Interesting to see upticks in sales (are we looking at sales figures or something else? Those lines look awfully jaggedy.) reportedly due to Youtube videos. However we don't know if the builders mentioned also instituted special "boat show pricing" or what else might be going on with the companies at the same time. For a guy with a Youtube podcast to sell, linking the results to Youtube makes sense, but it's not the only possible link.
