EAST

The Boating Magazine for Coastal New England The proven way to reach

New England

boaters

Do you want to reach New England boaters?

Then you should be advertising with Points East.

We’ve always believed that our business model – with free distribution at real boater haunts – is the best way to capture the minds and hearts of New England boaters.

Combine this free and easy access with fresh, local, intelligent content, and it’s no wonder that up to 30,000 copies of each issue are snapped up by local boaters. Get your message in front of them with Points East.

Five reasons Points East is the right place for your business

1

We reach New England boaters better than anyone else: power or sail, cruiser, day tripper, or racer.

No other regional publication speaks to this broad readership.

3

Ads in Points East are proven to work.

Advertising effectiveness can sometimes be difficult to measure. But we have the best proof of all that our ads work: More than 60 marine-oriented businesses have been advertising regularly in Points East for more than 10 years! We are obviously working for them. How many other publications can say that?

2

Our editorial voice creates an environment of trust and local intimacy for your advertisement.

We don’t do puff pieces, boat reviews, or destination pieces; readers recognize and respect our independence.

Since our stories are written primarily by other New England boaters, readers can relate to what they see in Points East. We talk about the kind of boating they do.

Our marina listings are accurate.

Our tide tables are local. Our stories are real. A look at our spirited “Letters” section reveals the close bond we’ve developed with our readers.

Points East is an integral part of the New England boating scene Now in our 18th year, Points East has become part of the fabric of New England boating. Your ad in Points East makes you part of this vibrant boating community. So put our local knowledge to work for you.

Winter Lecture Series We’ve partnered with the Herreshoff Marine Museum in Bristol, R.I., to bring boaters together on those cold winter nights to share refreshments and hear from some fascinating speakers. People like John Rousmaniere, Capt. Richard Phillips and George David, among many others who have been featured.

Points East Crew Match When a captain needs crew for his or her boat, or when sailors are looking for racing and cruising opportunities, they turn to the Points East Crew Match. Our free listings, which appear online and in printconnect boat owners and crew like no other service. Our Crew Match parties, comple with free food, beverages and prizes, are a huge hit.

Race and event sponsorship Each year we help sponsor a number of high-profile boating events. Our sponsorship includes advertising and often the insertion of the event program in an issue of the magazine.

Events have included: • Cape Cod Boat Show • Herreshoff Museum Winter Speaker Series • Diesel maintenance workshops • Hospice of Maine Regatta • Portland Yacht Club-Monhegan Race • Penobscot Pursuit • Corinthians’ Ocean Race • Gulf of Maine Solo-Twin • MS Harborfest • Penobscot Bay Rendezvous • ONE Offshore New England Championships • Boothbay Harbor Fest • Maine Rocks Race • Round Island Regatta
