Wanted For Free: Wanted - Old Sailing Magazines

[Fatbob]

Does anyone have some back issues of "Good Old Boat" or "Practical Sailor" magazines that they don't want? I'll pay shipping, of course. I am new to sailing/boat ownership and find both magazines stuffed full of good info.

Thanks,

Drew

Drew we have many Practical Sailors probably dating back at least to 2017. PM your address and I will determine shipping if you are still interested.

HI,
if you join the local library you can borrow those sailing magazines all online free... and keep borrowing them... plus other sailing books etc... did I mention FREE?

Both “Good Old Boat” and “Practical Sailor” have archived issues on their websites.

Japawil,

Thanks. Yes, I know both have archives online but Good Old Boat charges for back issues and I just prefer reading stuff on paper. When I owned an airplane, I had a decade of old magazines and donated them to a guy just getting into flying and though perhaps someone had old sailing magazines they might not want.

Regards,

Drew

I get it.
If you caught me a couple years ago when I retired and sold my house, I would have happily obliged.
Unfortunately I got rid of stacks of those very same magazines.
It was because the old issues were available online, that I was convinced to let the physical copies go.
Sorry

I know what you mean.....that is why I got rid of the flying magazines. We were moving and my wife kept insisting I throw out "those stinky old magazines". I gave them to another Mooney pilot and I'm sure he read them cover-to-cover.

Do you still want this? I have several years of both and I am just about to send them to the dump. However, shipping will be dear, the stuff is heavy and I'm in Toronto, let me know if you are interested.
