Many of you may know about it, but it was new to me today.

An excellent free read:

I have nothing to do with it, just thought it was excellent and maybe others don't know of it...

Plenty of back issues on their websites. We are spoiled on the East Coast

Yes, I noticed that too and they are all free also; it is great when free stuff is also quality stuff. Just noticed that Colin Jarman writes the mag - I used to read all his stuff in paper mags - really sensible sailor I thought.

Not just Colin but all three authors of East Coast Pilot and Roger Gaspar (aka Tillergirl). They also have separate websites see http://www.eastcoastpilot.com/ and http://www.crossingthethamesestuary.com/ and weekly NtMs on the East Coast Forum too. We are very fortunate.

Nah, it's just rubbish Dylan, they will let anyone write for it!

Seriously though, I have not read a re-hashed article yet, unlike some expensive ink and paper mags I could mention!

Thanks for posting that link. The last issue brought back many happy memories of the years we were based on the Blackwater.

Hey Guys,

Pretend it is rubbish and a pointless exercise, that may keep the South Coasties at bay !!!

We don't want to fill the East Coast with superyotties after all.
