Blue Water Sailing is the authority on offshore sailing, voyaging and world cruising. Founded by circumnavigators George and Rosa Day in April 1996, the magazine has grown rapidly.

Our monthly reviews reflect hundreds of thousands of miles of sea time and more than 30 years of world cruising, passagemaking, racing, and exploring the best cruising grounds near and far.
