Article and photo submissions are welcome from boaters worldwide! You may select to submit articles and photos for the magazine, the website, or both. Simply complete our fillable PDF submission form that you will find HERE and email it to us, or fill out our online submission form HERE. You will find the section titles and compensation information for the different sections in our guidelines.
Submissions that are used on the website will not receive compensation and are for our one-time use only. Once they are added to the site, you may submit them to other publications or sites, as long as they first appear here on Latitudes & Attitudes.

Please send all photos and articles (as well as your PDF submission form!) to submissions@latsatts.com. Images should be full resolution, and articles should be in either a Word document or PDF format.
