MBM to cease publication

[LimL]

Very sad to read that. I have been a subscriber since joining the boating fraternity and have always found the magazine a good read. And I really like e new format

Yes, I agree with Gavi, I've subscribed for years, enjoyed reading it and also like the new format... a loss particularly for its river boating coverage.

Update on Motor Boats Monthly

The consultation period regarding the proposal to cease publication of Motor Boats Monthly (MBM) ended today.

Time Inc. (UK) Ltd have now confirmed that this will proceed and the issue dated October, published on Thursday 18th September will be the last.

All subscribers will receive a letter with their Oct issue, which explains what will happen with their subscription and what their options will be.

Clearly it’s a very sad day for all of those involved and some of the team have chosen to sail (motor) off into the sunset whilst others are looking at alternative roles within the business.

The October issue will still be available to purchase at all leading newsagents and supermarkets (where stocked) as well as on the stand at Southampton Boat Show, which starts on the 12th Sept.

Many thanks

Richard

Yes, bad luck for the staff. Wishing them all the best, and I hope they all find something well paid and enjoyable in the future.

On behalf of the MBM team, thanks for all the nice comments. After following these forums since the start, I almost feel I know many of you. Thanks for all the support over the years. My heart has always been on the river and I now fully intend to spend more time on it. See you on the water!
