On-line subscriptions for Australian sailing magazines

by Rob Kothe on 23 Dec 2001 Sailors around the world can now subscribe to the top Australian sailing magazines on-line.

Oversea sailors have been following our classic blue water ocean races in increasing numbers on the Internet, with Australia's own Sail-World.com one of the active sailing news sites in the world.

Now via the Internet, the sailing world will be focusing on Sydney Harbour for the Boxing Day start of the 57th Sydney to Hobart race and Leg Three of the Volvo Ocean race.

Sailors who want to discover more about the South Pacific sailing scene, where boats don't spend months of the year on the hard stands can subscribe to three of Australia's top sailing magazines online, via the Magazine subscription links on Sail-World.

We are pleased that Sail-World is bringing a wider audience to the Australian sailing scene.
