Sail Racing Magazine | april 2013
Justin Chisholms Sail Racing Magazine är tillbaka efter en tids upppehåll. Nu med ännu mer djuplodande artiklar och fokus på America’s Cup och Volvo Ocean Race.
We are back!
Welcome to the relaunch issue of Sail Racing Magazine.
Whether you are a long time reader or have downloaded an issue for the first lime, thanks, it’s good to have you along.
First of all, a quick explanation of how we got to this point.
I launched Sail Racing Magazine with a trial issue in November 2010 and published another nine editions during 2011.
The response from yacht racing fans around the world was overwhelming with over 100,000 downloads of the free app in the first 12 months. Despite this success however, in December 2011 I had to make the difficult decision to suspend publication in order to reassess my business model.
Since then I have spent 12 months as a writer and commentator with the Volvo Ocean Race and worked for the Olympic News Agency as their sailing specialist at the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Older and hopefully wiser, this year 1 decided it was time to relaunch Sail Racing Magazine with a new look and a closer focus on the international professional yacht racing scene.
The magazine picks up where it left off with exclusive stories, interviews and feature articles from around the world.
The website sailracingmagazine.com has also had a complete revamp and is where you can now read our shorter form stories each day. If you are one of the around 10,000 people who follow Sail Racing Magazine on social media then you will know that our Facebook and Twitter feeds are a great place to keep right up to date with what is happening in the pro-sailing world.
The April 2013 issue is packed with interesting content that you won’t find anywhere else. We hope you enjoy il.
Thanks again for reading – it’s good to be back.
