New Port for Traditional Boats & Tall Ships Magazine
Independent publisher Wild Publishing Limited is pleased to announce the acquisition of boating title, Traditional Boats & Tall Ships. The title had been running for over a decade prior to its closure in the summer.
The magazine will now undergo a complete overhaul with regards to content, design and size prior to its re-launch in early 2008.
David Tickner, Editor-in-Chief of Wild Publishing Limited, is upbeat about the title's future prospects, "The magazine had a loyal readership and I am looking forward to producing a title that both satisfies them whilst opening up this subject matter to a brand new audience."
The magazine will stay on an alternate monthly frequency and will be priced £3.65.












Congratulations to Wild Publishing on taking up the mantel of running what was one of the best sailing magazines around.
As a former subscriber I look forward to reading the new issues early next year, and following the travels of past and present square riggers.
Wishing you all the very best of luck.

Hope my favorite magazine will still be available through Barnes and Noble book sellers here in the states. I will suscribe so as not to miss an issue. Thanks for not letting TB&TS go under!

As a long time contributor to TB&TS(Once upon a tide)I hope that the format of the magazine and the excellent material that has been presented over the years will be maintained. The new owner might like to take note that the magazine has not been well represented in Australia in the past with only speciallist newsagencies carrying copies, while 'Classic Boat' and 'Wooden Boat'are available everywhere.I find that as a member of the Australian Sail Training Association, Sydney Heritage Fleet (Sydney Maritime Museum)and National Maritime Museum,I am always lending my copies to other members who can never find one on display.
