There are new products that I wouldn't know about. One example is my Torqeedo electric ouboard. If I hadn't seen it in the Defender catalog I wouldn't have even thought about going electric and Defender would have lost a sale.

Personally, I enjoy leafing through the catalog looking for things I might want to get. In fact, I spent 10 minutes just before I turned the computer on tonight looking for my 2012 Defender catalog which came yesterday and got burried under some tax forms. I will be siting down to leaf through it as soon as I sign off
