Want to secure the 50th anniversary celebration issue of the Sailing Newspaper? Getting it is so easy!

What you will find inside the Special Issue

The special 50th anniversary issue of the Sailing Newspaper is divided into thematic sections covering half a century of sailing history.

History – Special Issue 50 Years GDV

It starts with “History,” a chronological reconstruction of the history of sailing through 50 iconic covers and the most significant facts from 1975 to the present: from the great ocean adventures to technological innovations, through regattas, personalities and moments that have marked the world of sailing.

Us & You – Special Issue 50 Years GDV

This is followed by the “Us & You” section, a large collective mural combining iconic images from the Sail Newspaper archive with photographs submitted by you, the readers: boating vacations, animals on board, reflections, memories and passions shared by a community of more than two million sea lovers. Don’t stop sending them to us!

Best Story – Special Issue 50 Years GDV

The third part, “Best Story,” collects the most unforgettable stories published in 50 years of GdV: adventures, crossings, encounters and testimonies that have made the history of Italian and international sailing, selected by browsing through all issues of the magazine from 1975 to the present.

Many Thanks – Special Issue 50 Years GDV

Finally, the “Many Thanks” section, which is a tribute to the companies, designers, shipyards, and protagonists who have helped make the sailing world and the Giornale della Vela itself great. A journey through the excellences and innovations that have marked the industry, told through interviews, stories and insights.
