Powerboat Magazine?
 

Can anyone confirm the rumour that Powerboat Magazine may rise again?

Don't know but I have some 70's and 80's mag's I would like to sell.Random months. JOHN SR

I think "Tank" can confirm this rumour... Interestingly enough my 11 year daughter is selling magizines for Girl scouts, and of course I said I would be 1 and I looked thru her brouchure, and low and behold, there was POWERBOAT Mag. So I bought a 2 year sub. from her. Now it will be interesting to see when I get my 1st issue.................

What are they going for?

I contacted Powerboat from their web site asking about my dad's and my subscription and they respond by saying I should be getting my November/December issue. The only thing I didn't like and I hope it was a typo since they said I should receive it by March/April 2018.

Digital issue should be out very soon and magazine was scheduled to go out in October.

Here is what I got so far!
1979 july,sept,oct
1980 feb,april,may,aug,sept,oct
1981 jan,feb,april,may,july,aug,nov
1985 march,may
1982 performance reports
1983 performance and buyers guide.

I think I have more. JOHN SR

2018 can you wait that long

Exactly true. Jason's (Johnson / Editor) has been working his azz off getting this year wrapped up and looking forward to big things in 2012. Should be getting at least two digitals and one hard copy by years end. Future should be 6 digitals and 6 hard copies.

The transfer from one publisher to another and getting things organized has taken a lot of work. But I think it'll be very well worth the wait! By the way, some may be happy to see the writing offerings from prior Editor Gregg Mansfield in up-coming issues.

LOL :D

I hope I don't have to wait that long.

For the ones that have subscriptions to the magazine will we receive an e-mail when the digital copies are on their site or do we need to go to the web site each day to see? I'll have to let my dad know about the digital copies since I renew his subscription each year as a Christmas gift but I'm going to guess he"ll just read the mags and not go to the site.

Best of luck to Powerboat and keep up the good work.

I received a post card today stating the July, 2011 issue would be the last....until the Nov/Dec issue. For what it's worth

Yep, same here...

got the same one in the mail today....

Me too.... Seems a bit late, right? COnsidering this was a notice letting us know the July issue is the last for a while. I am not holding my breath on seeing an issue in November or this year at all for that matter..............

:lolhit::lolhit: You can hold your breath...Digital issue will be done with-in days. paper issue will be done with-in a week or so.

They talked about the new format at the Shootout. Sounds like it's a go. Just don't know how I feel about the online mag. I guess that's the direction the world is going, just not the same as looking at the magazine.

So My question to you is... Why did they take until now to officially notify subscribers that the July issue is/was the last issue until November.

I will believe it when I am sitting in " :eek: the Library :eek:" with my November issue of Powerboat in hand.

Got mine today

Got mine,Nov Dec issue is what it said.

got mine last night - looking forward to the nov/dec issue

I received a card in the mail yesterday stating publication had been suspended but would start again with the Nov./Dec. issue and i would receive the remainder of my subscription. It also mentioned the new digital/web magazine.

:poopoo:Electronic issue? I guess the laptop will see a new area of the house......

Get a tablet.... Easier to handle in that part of the house....

Hey guys
Thanks for your concern regarding the magazine. For all of you worried about a "digital" version, don't be. The magazine will still arrive as it always has in the printed form. The "d.pub," as it's called, will be in addition to the printed magazine. It's basically a slick extension of the brand that anyone (not just subscribers) will be able to access from a web browser, tablet or smart phone. It's not just a digitized magazine, but more of a themed, interactive online section of Powerboat.

And yes, the new issue is just about finished. We're on deadline now and shipping it to the printer on Tuesday. It's got some great Shootout coverage, a nice story on the Texas Outlaw Challenge, our Readers Choice Awards results and much more, including all the staples such as Teague on Tech and performance reviews.

Please feel free to send comments my way any time: [email protected]. And thanks for bearing with us through the transition.
