Agreed Tom, and I don't see the relevance of the first 3 questions either.

No disrespect siddons, but we don't know who the hell you are, anything (confirmed) about you or whether you really are collecting data for your own use.

<30 large number of people as the average wake in the UK is (I Think) about 22K

30-50 large range as well.

50K+ large no of people who buy bigger boats may well be on that.  Not going to get any market info there.

Although, to be fair, this is a Yotts and Yotting forum. You can see how the unfamiliar might get the wrong idea.
