NAUTICAL MILE
P U B L I C A T I O N S
The Nautical Mile started in August of 2003 as a 12 page free handbook for Lee County
residents and visitors with a circulation of 250 per month. During the first 2 years
it grew into a 40 page free nautical paper. Thousands are printed monthly and our
EOM recycle pick-up ratio is less that 5% monthly. The Nautical Mile is now 56 pages
and distributed in over 150 public locations through Lee County Florida and is available
365 days a year. We have about 20 local staff writers and a few from other parts
of the country. Our monthly content gives the Mile a long shelf life covering real
estate, local boating, fishing tournaments, upcoming events throughout Lee County,
fishing guides, places to stay, bait & tackle shops, detailed maps of boat ramps
and waterfront restaurants, GPS numbers to dozens of artificial reefs and shipwrecks
and saltwater fish identification. Our target audience is new and seasonal residents
and visitors to the area.
We’ve had to change formats 4 times since 2003 to accommodate growth and our advertising
customer renewals hold at over 95% yearly.
Our greatest competitive features are pages of useful monthly content and public
availability all month long.
Nautical Mile Publications also publishes “Destination Pine Island”, a quarterly
guide to Pine Island Florida. We are also the founders of the online store, the Bokeelia
Trading Company. All of our papers can be downloaded in PDF a format online.
