The Watercraft Journal is on the hunt – maybe for you!
In the coming days and weeks, you might notice a series of course corrections at The Watercraft Journal to realign us with the founding spirit that sparked a whole industry back in 1973: namely, the youthful attitude and explosive energy – both as a competitive sport and as an athletic recreational activity – that marked the true jet ski lifestyle from the very beginning.
Founder and Editor-in-Chief Kevin Shaw has stated many times in the past, and emphatically re-stated recently, that the soul of jet skiing was about pushing boundaries and defying the norms of what could be done on the water – both for the individual as much as the machine.
As WCJ strives to tap back into that original spirit, we are looking for a couple of new freelance writers to bring in that same youthful energy. Those interested must be insanely passionate about the type of machines that fit this agenda.
Do you know somebody reviving old school 2-strokes? Sure! Building a turbocharged Spark? Great! Some insane Frankenstein that somebody’s putting together in their garage? Tell us more about it!
We’re wanting to focus on people in our sport showing some real “old school” stoke. No, we’re not trying to live in the past but we are trying to fix the future by looking at what made this hobby cool in the first place (and it sure as hell wasn’t cup holders and phone chargers).
So if this is all making sense to you, we think you’re exactly who we want to start writing articles for us.
Articles will range from highly technical information, to reviews of products, and will include tutorials, event recaps, and more. Those interested should drop an email to [email protected].
