Welcome to Yachting Life Online and this Month's News Leads
Leisure sailors in the north know all about Yachting Life. The monthly magazine is literally part of their yachting life, be they keelboat sailors, dinghy racers or power boating enthusiasts. YL has something for everyone each month; whether it's dealing with local issues at yacht club level or reporting on local heroes on the race circuit, THE sailing magazine in the north covers it in depth.
Little wonder that the most often used description of Yachting Life is, 'It's the magazine where you read about and see pictures of people you actually know.' But not everyone in the United Kingdom enjoys this privilege - only if you live or sail in Scotland, the north of England or Northern Ireland. In this popular, but massive leisure sailing area, TEN Yachting Life correspondents seek out all the local news for monthly publication. That's why Yachting Life is the real heart of sailing in the north.
Welcome to the YL site which tells you: how to place a display or classified advertisement and where to buy a copy. It gives you a colour teaser on this month's main stories: tells you what's on next month's editorial menu, and it can link you directly to prominent players providing services in the north's leisure sailing infrastructure who are, naturally, regular major advertisers in Yachting Life.
