Default Why Print Rocks

There’s still special something about paper magazines, https://www.offshoreonly.com/article...hy-print-rocks.

From the OSO home page.

Its the way it smells when you first open it. Its also easier than lugging a laptop or tablet around with you (I can't see the phone). You never have to "charge" (as in power charge) a magazine. And, well........... has anybody noticed how good it smells when you open it?

And—no matter how fast your Internet connection is, thumbing through a print magazine to find a story is still faster.

I already spend too many hours of my day in front of a computer. An oversized speedboat magazine with boating stories is just the ticket to a well deserved break in my day.

It looks like they still have 2016, but 2015 looks to be gone. Maybe Jason or Matt have a few stashed. I got both last year and can't wait to see 2017.
