“We are very pleased to be working with the editorial and business team that built Style of Wight into the leading lifestyle title on the Island,” said Harbour Master Capt. Stuart McIntosh. “The appointment of Style of Wight as new publishers of the Cowes Harbour Handbook opens up tremendous opportunities for the Handbook to benefit from Style of Wight’s proven track record of high quality publications and established lifestyle advertising expertise and relationships.”

Christian Warren, Style of Wight’s Editor and Creative Director said: “We are very excited to be working with Cowes Harbour Commission on this well-respected publication. The Cowes Harbour Handbook is the first guide many visitors will see when they arrive on the Island and we are keen to ensure it really champions all that Cowes has to offer. Alongside all the important information a sailor needs to ensure their experience is the best it can be, we’ll be freshening up the local content, design, photographs and adding a few other surprises.”
