social following

Latitudes & Attitudes is the #1 print cruising magazine on the planet. That doesn’t mean that we don’t expand our efforts to reach boaters wherever they are, though. While many of our tens of thousands of subscribers wait eagerly for the latest issue to land in their mailbox, we also recognize that boaters are often on the go, looking for fun and relaxation wherever it may be. That’s why we’ve developed a strong digital presence. Our social media platforms – Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and so on – have a combined 13,000+ followers, and our email list has twice as many active subscribers. We also have a digital online version of Latitudes & Attitudes where readers can peruse previous issues for free and get their feet wet before subscribing. Escape may come in many forms, but Latitudes & Attitudes wants to make sure that our readers can stay in the loop, even if they’re adventuring away from home and their copy of the magazine.

In just the first six days, we had more than 12,000 new readers! Our Facebook page can reach 25,000+ people a week, sending them to our website where they spend on average more than twice the time than other boating publication sites. And with Pyrate Radio, you have the ability to reach boaters and charterers from the Caribbean to New Englad, and anywhere in the world.
