Almost every boating magazine with a little self respect has a Web site up and running. Unfortunately, for quite a few, their idea of a Web site is an advertisement with a cover picture and subscription information. How boring! It is safe to say that a lot of boating magazines are not dealing well at all with the competition and opportunities inherent in the Web. Here are some excellent exceptions:
48 North
US sailing magasine.
Boats
For Sale Magazine
...and links to a host of other "For-sale" Web sites and magazines by Freedom
House Publishers.
Catamaran
Sailor's Magazine
Extensive site relating to catamaran sailing and sailing in general.
Cruising
World and Sailing World Magazines
Definitely essential, with both scope and depth. The Web site design is another story.
