thanks, looks promising
Has anyone found this on the rack in the U.S.? I’d like to check out an issue before subscribing, at $7.50 a pop (gotta love that strong U.S. dollar).
But looks pretty intriguing, thanks for the post.
Masik Publishing?
Gee - from the sounds of the Publisher name - must be some skinny stick involvement here!!

Sales in the US
Well, my latest issue arrived in the mail yesterday and the return address was Sea Kayak Georgia (Tybee Island).
Guess they must now be the “distributor” in the US. They may be able to sell you a single issue.
Also know that you can purchase back issues from OP directly. Could do that before deciding to sink the money into a subscription.

OP
Alder Creek in Portland have loads of copies of all the back issues, and Ecomarine in Vancouver BC also stocks the magazine every month.
cheers

I was just going to type that same thing
I just order three issues from http://www.aldercreek.com/ I picked the ones I thought most interesting. If I like them a subscription will follow.
Review
Hey that mag reviewed the Eddyline Fathom in this issue…Positive or negative…??
I would think that depends…
On weather or not they are a sponser… lol
I don’t have time for a magazine
and p.net (which is free).
Speaking for only myself: I spend my spare time paddling and not reading or fantisizing. And there isn’t much I need or care to learn for what and where I paddle. If I need to learn something …then I’ll learn it the hard way but this is only my opinion.
Like PFDs…I’ll opt out.
Paddlin’ on
Richard
then OPT OUT and stop “contributing” NM
Thumbs Up !!!
A friend gave me his mag knowing I have an Eddyline kayak. The Brits gave the Fathom two thumbs up. It was a great review. I will look for more and might subscribe. It is a great mag.
Thanks Ripple
Thanks for the review !!
Sea Kayaker Magazine
Matt: the older issues of Sea Kayaker Magazine are actually better than the new ones. I picked up, in more than one “lot” or collection, stacks of Sea Kayaker magazines on eBay. WOrks out on average to about two bucks per issue, and I have some from the first to recent, and they are doozies. I read them often, and there are so many articles that pertain to stuff that people stil post about on Pnet even today. The techniques never get outdated, as well as navigation, installation tips (eg a compass), and on and on. Try checking eBay for or Sea Kayaker issues, bought in bunches. They are exceptional.

if they review my boat positively
I’ll subscribe too
Thanks for the advice
2nd attempt for the Brits

They tried to put one out around 12 years ago. It lasted about 6 issues. America has the bucks and the advertisers know that. I hope they can pull it off. Sea kayaker makes a lot of money with the advertisers of calm water, rec boats and inland water destinations/outfitters and subscribers.
GK, what I love about you…
is I don’t look so bad!! Have a good one… Please don’t go away, it’s refreshing.
that’s because
you don’t have a real winter down there.
Maybe we could organize a
magazine tranport group for Ocean Paddler.
Let’s say that Joe has the August issue in New Jersey and Lou in California hasn’t read it yet. Maybe Bob is traveling from New York to Utah and could carry the issue that leg of the trip…

Let’s Chip In
Really, $90 for 12 issues? What’s say we all chip in a dollar and have someone read it every month and tell us what it says, lol:)

i’ve just read them
an acquaintance gave me the last 6 copies to peruse. certainly beautiful to look at, great photos. some of the writing is stellar, some nothing special. some fun to read, but mostly a rehash of other materials i have assimilated over the years- that’s not a criticism, just an observation. i do appreciate a few of the personalities though, and the simple exotic factor of a different style of language and writing. different gear is always cool. mostly though it really makes me want to go and paddle Scotland!
