This is the most bizarre thing. Every issue I look all over for it and sometimes I just can't locate this magazine. I am sure we would all pay to subscribe, but the publisher wants to go through a game of hunt & seek. It's a good magazine, but distribution method, that's another story. :eekdrop:

Agreed. I've only been able to find it once.

Obviously one of the keys to increased distribution is ease of purchase. Matt, want to send me 50 copies and I'll offer them on our own e-commerce site as an experiment? :D

Trust me, all of you who want the magazine and have taken the time to say you can't find it, I will raise these issues. Vicki Newton, the rest of the great Sportboat contributing team (Bob Brown, Eric Colby, Jason Johnson, Jay Nichols and Tim Sharkey) want you to be able to find it.

As for subs, I've said it before but I have no trouble repeating it. The publisher won't offer them unless the magazine goes bi-monthly, and that magazine won't go bi-monthly until the powers that be are sure it is viable at that frequency.

+1 sign me up!

can not find it either.

I see why the Cig owner knows the mag very well and really likes its. Nice pic & cover.

Matt, mark me down as another reader who can't find it. I am in Western NY.
