I get "Practical Sailor". They so far have restricted themselves to
gear and used boats. Each issue has an article about a used boat.
The potter hasn't yet been mentioned.

There was a good series on anchors this year. I'm going to use the
bottom paints and teak varnish they suggested. I bought the GPS they
suggested, I'm happy with it. Like consumer reports they do not carry
advertisements, therefore their reporting may be less biased.

I only wish they had a web site.
