Good Old Boat magazine focuses solely on 10-year-old and older model sailboats and the sailors who own and love them. We want to be clear about this: if your interests lie in the area of older powerboats, our focus may disappoint you.

Everyone starts with a free issue. We'll add you to the growing list of Good Old Boat readers and invoice you for a subscription. If Good Old Boat is not for you after all, simply return the invoice marked "Cancel." We hope you'll be impressed enough to stay with us to offer advice and contacts useful to fellow sailors through the magazine and web pages.
