In print: Being a technology / analytical kind of guy I'm a huge Sailing World fan and disagree with the negative comments. They have in depth racing technical / tactical and rules discussions that alone are worth the price of admission. I concede that some of the in-depth stuff reads like a text book but if you make the effort to wade through it, there's much to gain. Plus it comes free if you are a US Sailing member at one of the more reasonable levels..
I also read Sail this one's good for some project stuff, latest gear of course, and the usual far away cruising, the disaster stories (Like that a lot), boat test etc. I was kind of a sucker on this on this one as my dad used to subscribe in the 70's and I dig the nostalgia side. As for the price I got a 2 year subscription deal somewhere online for about 9 bucks.. Couldn't pass it up If you subscribe to Boat US their mag is not very sailing oriented but it is a surprisingly good general boating magazine. Online + One on Good old boat /. Practical Sailor (Love the comparison tests on gear and stuff) .. -Francois Rivard 1990 34+ "Take Five" Lake Lanier, Georgia
