And  you&#8217;ll support a worthy organization. The stated aim of the  organization: <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">We strengthen community  among sailors through interactive, informative and entertaining media,  with a focus on the progressive side of modern maritime culture and it&#8217;s  roots in traditional seamanship.<br \/><\/span>And they do just that.

Heavy industrial offshore and Lakes operations have trade magazines that  focus on new technology or environmental legislation affecting their  industry. Commercial fishermen, research vessel crew, tour operators and  sail training crew have few, if any, forums where they share  information. Wooden boat builders, cruisers, and racers have magazines  and online forums that include technical articles and product  information, but scarce offerings when it comes to well written sea  stories, interesting art and photography, and thoughtful reflections  about life on the water today.<\/p>\n<p>This is where Jack Tar picks up  the slack; our audience includes everyone who recognizes the great, and  sometimes not-so-great aspects of the seafaring life. We educate new  mariners on how to succeed in the maritime industry, while promoting the  study of traditional seamanship skills. We provide venues to discuss  important issues: whether it&#8217;s about safety at sea, USCG compliance  topics, relationships between operators and crew, or personal subjects  that only a mariner might understand. We serve as an outlet for the  creative and talented souls living and working on the water. We offer  common ground where both fishermen and fisheries scientists may stand in  support of dedicating their lives to the management of important  natural resources. We are about bringing people together, and sharing  our dedication to a safe, prosperous, and enjoyable future at sea.<\/p>\n<p>There  is an excellent quote on the back cover of this year&#8217;s September issue  of <span class=\"blsp-spelling-corrected\">Maine<\/span>,  the magazine; &#8220;Seafarers, and the maritime community are the people  that teach me about what it means to love thy neighbor, how to be  hospitable, and how to welcome a stranger.&#8221; &#8211; Rev. Dr. Nash <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\">Garabedian<\/span><\/p>\n<p>That  is the spirit in which Jack Tar Magazine was borne, and that is the  attitude with which we bring culture and information to other mariners  and the world. Please help us to narrow the gaps in communication. You  are helping people on different sides of the issues understand each  other better. You are helping educate young people regarding their  options in the industry. You are allowing a new generation of <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\">Cousteaus<\/span>, <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\">Heyerdahls<\/span>, <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\">Conrads<\/span> and <span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\">Chichesters<\/span> to  emerge and renew centuries of public fascination with a subculture that  is too quickly forgetting seamanship survival skills and the romance of  going to sea.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Minute Shopping Directive Cover Photo, the Crew of the F\/V Princess sporting some nice salmon and not a lot more!l to r Mariah, Captain Heather &amp; Sally courtesy Jack Tar Magazine Surely anyone who either consistently or intermittently reads this web log can help the Jack Tar Magazine stay afloat by purchasing the 2011&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1780"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1780"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1780\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1780"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1780"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smallcraftadvisor.com\/our-blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1780"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
