FLORIDA MARINE TIMES is published by Showcase Publications, Inc. the largest privately held publisher of targeted photo publications throughout the Eastern United States publishing over 60 magazines weekly.

• Florida Marine Times - a signature size 8 1/2 X 11magazine, full color printing, distributed free at marinas, boating retail stores and boat shows on Florida's west coast, with a monthly circulation of 25,000 copies. Advertisements are for new and used boats, products, manufacturers, services, boating issues and events.

Our Distribution - While newspapers have a larger circulation, they do not target the fishing / boating marketplace. Florida Marine Times reaches a different demographic market with distribution in high volume retail outlets as well as bait shops, tackle shops, marinas, boating retail stores and strategic street locations throughout your area. Just look for our distinctive Yellow street boxes. Because they are FREE, they reach even more potential customers for you.

• As an alternative media, Florida Marine Times serves a middle market segment in the sport of boating for sales, service and accessory businesses that serve boating enthusiasts.

• As with any sport, there is an insatiable need for participants to gather information and as much printed literature as possible to support their personal involvement and identity associated with "their" sport.

• Americans love the boating life. They are fascinated by boating and they spend tens of billions of dollars each year on the sport and lifestyle. People also love to talk about boating. No matter where you are, you can start a conversation about boating and people will stop what they are doing and listen.

• Florida is the number one state in the country for boating and related lifestyle activities. The Gulf Coast especially continues to experience phenomenal growth from increases in both visitors and permanent residents.
