For those of you who have been regularly checking this page for the last ten months waiting for fresh content, new pictures at the very least just SOMETHING to update or change, then please let me apologise for the black hole like lack of new content.

Now that I’ve been in the Editor seat for a few months, it is time to get this blog going again. My good hearted intentions is to blog at least once a week – famous last words??

I wont just be using this as a ‘look how awesome the mag is’, but will be using it to talk about relevant subjects, recent happenings, funny goings on and generally record the sharp artistic wit of a rambling madman.

That said however, we have just put the latest issue to press (due in shops Thursday/Friday depending on the speed of the shelf stacking) and already I’m looking forward to seeing it a proper print form with the excitability of a small girl about to unwrap their first rainbow coloured pony.

For starters we’ve got the writeup of my five day expedition to Croatia (pictured) and what’s even better - the same charter company I went with has given us a £4,000 voucher for one lucky reader to win, so you can go out yourself and put my holiday to shame.

We’re also fast approaching the Sports Boat and RIB show (21-22 May, Ocean Village Marina – THIS WEEKEND!!) it’s free entry as it’s always been and we’ve got a huge raft of exhibitors, continual demonstrations and the launch of the AquaX – the offshore jet ski race from the same chaps at P1.

Hope to see you all at the show.
