New K-Line Steamer Reviewed by CTT

IMHO, poorly done. Hardly a mention of the prototype except the author's opinion that it was ugly. With a photo on the magazine cover, I expected lots more.

I thought the review was lacking in many areas. Like you said no comment on the prototype, no details of the cruise, no mention of the smoke unit, not even a full page. Plus they put it on the cover and the other reviews received more ink.

As the cost of engines spirals, a short review is all I need.
