Improve your boat for less! That’s the theme of the new Practical Boat Owner, on sale today. If you can’t get through the snow and ice to your boat this weekend, why not pick up a copy of PBO for a good, long read? It’s full of great money-saving ideas to inspire you for when the snow stops and the sun comes out.

We’ve been in a couple of crisp, white, South Coast boatyards this week and found PBO readers valiantly carrying on with winter maintenance and even antifouling!

Also check out the PBO events calendar, recently updated with a plethora of exciting and useful dates for your diary, like the Maldon Paper Boat Race – which this year includes prizes for the first boat, first boat to sink, prettiest boat, ugliest boat, junior class, design award and mechanical propulsion class. It’s also got full listings for Boat Jumbles around the UK.

Don’t miss it!
