What boating magazines do you read?

[johnbenj]

What boating magazines do C-Brats read? I want to find one or two that have articles covering the basics like maintenance and up-keep, how-to articles, destination reviews, electronics and gadgets, etc.

Any recommendations? (so I can ask for a subscription for Christmas)

Thanks,
john

I've read them all. Motor Boating, Sea, and a regional one called Nor'westing are my favorites.

I've been reading "Boat Trader" the most lately both to help price my boat and to search out what is available.... C.W.

Hi John,
I just resurrected a couple of previous threads about boating magazines that I located in the "search" engine.......hope this helps as a start).

Although it's geared towards owners/wannabee owners of larger trawlers, I love Passagemaker magazine. It has the types of articles and orientation you're looking for. I'd encourage you to pick one up at a newsstand and check for yourself. I ask my wife to renew my subscription every year at Christmas. I also like our local boating magazine NorWesting very much. Cheers! Mike.

I read the Canadian magazine "Pacific Yachting" focused on BC and the new "Pacific Yachting: Boating in the Pacific Northwest" focused on Washington/Oregon. Both are by the same publisher and IMHO head and shoulders above any other boating magazine I've seen. There are real, practical cruising, safety and maintenance articles in every issue. I read "Practical Sailor" for a while because of its technical articles and tests but it is too much a sailing magazine for me.
