The magazine

YACHT classic takes its readers on a journey into the enchanting world of classic yachting. With its opulent visuals and artfully told stories, it transports readers back to a time when sailboats were still made of wood and built by hand. And when their lines still had to meet the highest aesthetic standards. A world of elegance and gentlemanly sport. And a world that is now back in full bloom. Because everywhere today, maritime cultural monuments are being restored, and a dedicated community maintains and sails these gems with love and perseverance.

YACHT classic is published as a special edition of YACHT – as an expression of a lifestyle, a forum for maritime culture and history, and a special look at society, business, science, and technology. But above all, it reflects emotions. Heart and soul and passion for the world of maritime gems.

The website

Delius Klasing Verlag, with its media brands YACHT, BOOTE, BOOTE Exklusiv and SURF, has been collecting Europe's largest water sports market survey for many years and thus provides valuable market knowledge together with its partners.

Every two years, the data is collected and presented to the water sports industry together with current trends and individually created brand profiles.

You can pre-order the current market data here. The data will be sent out on 01.02.2022. In addition, further interesting evaluations are possible for your brand management and development.

This data comes from the reader survey of the YACHT and BOOTE brands and was collected in cooperation with the Market Research Institute, Neuhausen.

The digital App

Parallel to the print issue, the YACHT App, the digital edition with additional features, appears. The free mantle app is available for iPad and Android tablets.

App users are on average younger, have higher incomes and are even more willing to spend than e.g. magazine readers (source: Market Research). All YACHT print ads automatically appear in the app at no extra cost. Multimedia content such as videos, picture galleries and links to your homepage can be booked with our print/app combination. In the Mantel App, attention-grabbing display ads can also be booked.
