You may submit notes, letters, news clippings, tear sheets, brochures anything that clarifies the story. Comment your opinion about matters pertaining to wooden boats and nautical subjects in general is welcome but should be kept short, a paragraph or two at most. Because of space limitations, succinctness is an imperative. Photographs and line art are helpful but not necessary. All material is credited to its source, and contributions from both regular and occasional correspondents are acknowledged and paid for upon use.
Payment is based on the form and complexity of the submission.

Plans that we don't publish immediately will be placed in our files for future consideration. Text Most of our articles run from 1,000 to 4,000 words, and while we are not restricted by the same space requirements as most magazines, we do limit the size of certain types of articles.
