Mad Mariner is giving away a free News Box widget that will allow anybody with a website – boaters, owner groups, restoration buffs, marinas, yacht clubs, marine businesses or anyone else – to carry live nautical news.

Using reliable RSS technology that is simple to install, the Mad Mariner News Box can increase traffic and keep your readers informed. The box is available in any size and features five different news feeds: magazine features, marine news, video podcasts, boating tips and blog posts. All are updated daily.

Mad Mariner, which provides BoatU.S. a news feed for its 650,000 members, makes News Boxes available online, in a format that is easy to install and can be completed in minutes. Users can select one of the standard sizes or create their own custom size, choose any combination of feeds and then register their box, all on one page. Mad Mariner will instantly provide a snippet of computer code that users can install by cutting and pasting it onto their own website. The boxes are 100% safe, have no spyware or tracking of any kind, and Mad Mariner respects the privacy of all users.

Mad Mariner, which is on pace to surpass more than one million unique visitors this year, publishes new stories every single day. While articles are usually available with a free 30-day trial or a paid subscription, access is offered at no charge through the Mad Mariner News Box.

As always, we hope you enjoy.
