Ad Sales Coordinator. Waggoner extends a warm welcome to Mariah Landon and Sue Peterson, who are coordinating Ad Sales for the 2026 Ports & Passes and the 2026 Waggoner Cruising Guide. Advertisers should watch for emails from Mariah or Sue to reserve your ad space. Mariah and Sue will be dividing their duties and contacts based on cruising area. Advertisers can expect to hear from either Mariah at MariahLandon@waggonerguide.com or Sue Peterson at SuePeterson@waggonerguide.com. Mariah and Sue will be monitoring advertising requests that come directly to advertising@waggonerguide.com. Both Mariah and Sue are detailed oriented and dedicated to serving the needs of advertisers.
Ports & Passes. Mariah Landon and Alexis Wilson, creators of the 2025 Ports & Passes guide, have already started creating Ports & Passes for 2026, which will be divided into two volumes by cruising area. This two-volume option helps keep the price affordable for boaters. The work ethic and attention to detail by Mariah and Alexis are much appreciated – see our previous article HERE regarding details about the 2026 two-volume Ports & Passes.
Seasonal Updates. Boaters are reminded to reference the online Waggoner Updates Table HERE regarding changes at marinas that occur during the 2025 boating season. Fellow boaters and Waggoner readers are encouraged to send us their noted changes at marinas to editors Lorena and Leonard Landon at llandon@waggonerguide.com.
