Photos Are a Good Sailing Memory, and Inspiration

When you go out sailing, how often do you pause to take a photo? We do it as often as we can, which makes sense as it’s part and parcel of being a sailing magazine: What good is a sailing magazine without sailing photos? But it’s not just us; we find that other sailors, and often non-sailors, like taking photos too. And that is evidenced by the hundreds of photos we’ve received for our monthly Sailagram feed since its inception at the start of 2021.

In January 2021, we shared 30 photos.

By the time February had passed and we published the March Sailagram, we needed five pages to show them all, and that trend has continued!

This Thursday’s Crew List Party is an ideal opportunity to get some land-based sailing snaps. Get your ticket for the party, bring your camera — OK, your phone — and take selfies with your new sailing friends. You can redo them on the water later…
