    Gary;

    If you hang out around here, I'm afraid that you are quite some distance from "normal" (whatever that might be). But, it's okay, you are among friends.

    Did no one mention Maritime Life & Traditions? No one mentioned the Italian magazines either. Yacht Capital, besides the general interest magazine, also publish an excellent quarterly called YD Yacht Design. The same group also publish Yacht Digest, an Italian language Classic Boat with a somewhat different slant.

    International Boat Industry is free to those in the industry at www.ibinews.com

    Best to all, Tad

    Tad, thanks for the info on IBI. I had seen the publication before, but had not known there was a subscription offer.

    Yacht Capital now publish in english, YD as well. As far as I know, Digest is only in Italian. I have "it" so bad that it's never stopped me if there are nice pics and drawings!

    Nautique is the best of the Dutch mags.

    Loisirs Nautiques is great on design if you read a bit of French.

    And Boating New Zealand is really one of the more excellent magazines in the world! As you can see, my wife just shakes her head.

    SailDesign Old Phart! Stay upwind..

    I tend to browse the racks and buy what has interesting articles that month. Pro BoatBuilder comes without me asking ;-)
    My favourite mag, although I usually design above their size range, is Small Boat Advisor.
