FROM THE EDITOR
Exclusive photography of the world’s most beautiful boats and intelligent, in-depth content is at the very heart of Classic Boat. Each issue showcases the best-designed traditional boats afloat, examining their design, provenance and heritage and championing their classic good looks and craftmanship.
For more than 35 years, readers have turned to Classic Boat for credible advice, reviews and information about classic boats, events, and gatherings worldwide – our expert contributors include Tom Cunliffe, Adrian Morgan, and Nigel Sharp. Meeting readers at classic boat regattas from Cannes to Cape Cod helps us to understand their interests and spending power. While our commitment to innovation – in print and online – has delivered robust newsstand and subscription sales and increased digital engagement.
