Why advertise in World of PowerBoats
Established in 1985 (formerly Raceboat International) the publication has developed enormously. The magazine still remains the premier publication for luxury, style and performance marine craft, with a wealthy, highbrowed loyal audience of readers whom typically own at least one boat regularly invest in both their interests and lifestyle. The magazine’s unique circulation includes a substantial percentage of our printed copies being supplied by invitation to some of the worlds largest and most influential brands. This unique marketplace offers advertisers a fantastic opportunity to showcase their latest boats and products to a privileged audience who historically are keen buyers of products such as these and in a position to be able to afford this, crucial in these testing times.
Printed: World of PowerBoats is published six times a year using some of the highest quality paper stock available, a UV varnish is used on the covers and thick glossy pages throughout. The superior quality of the magazine’s style reflects the prestigious products featured, and promotes them in what we believe is a format that advertisers expect and deserve.
Digital: The decision in March 2005 to launch an Online Digital version was seen as a significant move in terms of keeping up with the readers’ requirements and expectations. Long standing and prominent editor David Sewell said “This is a landmark move for the magazine, wherever our readers are in the world they have instant access to download the publication”. The online digital version of the magazine is just like reading a published paper copy, includes all advertisements with ‘live’ hyperlinks to the advertiser’s site.
Online: World of PowerBoats Online is a comprehensive website giving readers up to date information using a bespoke online publishing software system. This ensures readers are kept abreast of all the latest developments in the world of power boats, including daily news, performance boat reviews, videos, race results, events calendar, advertising, back issues and more. A secure online subscription payment facility has become very popular.
