BWI CODE OF ETHICS
Indicating widespread agreement for principles contained within it, the Boating Writers
International membership voted 94% for and 5% against the organization's Code of
Ethics in June, 2002.
The ethics document has four primary divisions. First, "editorial independence," is
identified as the best way to achieve honesty and excellence in the writers' work. To that
end, the guidelines say a publication’s editor should have control over all editorial
content, photos and front cover artwork. They condemn the practice of trading
advertising for editorial content. Second, the guidelines encourage "accuracy, fairness
and truth" by editors and writers. Third, they discourage "conflicts of interest," real or
perceived, whenever possible. Fourth, they recognize "supporting and associate
members" to be an integral part of BWI, and therefore expect them to follow these
guidelines.
BWI Ethics Principles
Boating Writers International regards editorial integrity as a cornerstone of its mission. The
following ethical principles should guide editors, writers and web content managers in making
choices that will not only enhance editorial excellence for our various media, but heighten
credibility in the eyes of our readers.
1. EDITORIAL INDEPENDENCE.
We believe editorial independence is the best way to achieve honesty and excellence in our
work. To that end:
1.1 A publication’s editor should have control over all editorial content, photos and front cover
artwork.
1.2 BWI expressly condemns the practice of trading advertising for editorial content. We believe
that this practice not only undermines a publication's credibility among its readers, but ultimately
diminishes its value in the marketplace.
1.3 Insofar as possible, editorial and advertising functions should be kept separate to avoid the
risk of editorial decisions being influenced by advertising revenues.
1.4 Editors should not submit any editorial piece to advertisers for prior approval or screening.
This does not preclude checking facts or verifying quotes for accuracy.
1.5 Advertorial and sponsored pages must be clearly labeled as such on each page of the
advertising section. Display advertising must be clearly differentiated from editorial to avoid
confusion.
2. ACCURACY, FAIRNESS AND TRUTH.
Editors and writers should always strive to be fair and truthful. To that end:
2.1 Writers and editors must never deliberately mislead readers, either by making dishonest or
distorted statements or by omitting pertinent facts about a product or subject they are covering.
However, editors may inform manufacturers of specific criticisms of boats or products prior to
publication, and give that manufacturer a fair chance to respond before the article appears in
print.
2.2 Any factual errors should be acknowledged immediately, and corrections should be featured
as prominently as possible.
2.3 Information provided by any manufacturer must be identified as such.
This includes performance test data that has not been independently verified by the editor or
writer.
2.4 Plagiarism is considered theft of another's work. Writers and editors should always attribute
materials taken from other sources.
3. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.
Writers and editors should avoid conflicts of interest, real or perceived, whenever possible. To
that end:
3.1 Any potential conflict of interest, which might affect editorial content, must be disclosed prior
to publication. Writers must notify editors, and the editor, in turn, must disclose this information
to the readers.
3.2 Editors and writers should not accept substantial gifts, services or merchandise from
organizations or individuals that may be affected by editorial content.
3.3 Editors and writers should not solicit products for personal use.
3.4 The acceptance of a product for editorial review does not carry an obligation to give that
product favorable coverage. Any products provided by suppliers should be returned after the
test is complete.
3.5 Any product loaned "on consignment" or for a "long-term test," should be identified as such
in the article.
3.6 Publications should pay the travel expenses of their writers and editors. If this is not
possible, such support should be disclosed. It should also be made clear to manufacturers that
subsidized or free travel does not equal favorable coverage.
4. SUPPORTING AND ASSOCIATE MEMBERS.
We consider supporting and associate members to be an integral part of BWI, and therefore
expect them to follow these guidelines. To that end:
4.1 Supporting and associate members should never provide any misleading information or
untruthful facts about their clients and products.
4.2 Supporting and associate members should not request, or expect, editorial coverage in
exchange for advertising dollars, product loans or subsidized travel.
4.3 Supporting and associate members should do their utmost to ensure that commitments for
boat and product tests are met.
WE FOLLOW BWI’S
ETHICS GUIDELINES
BWI ANNUAL WRITING CONTEST
BWI maintains an Annual Writing Contest to recognize excellence in creating compelling stories
about the boating lifestyle through entertaining, educational and inspiring journalism. Awards,
presented at the Miami International Boat Show in February, are made in categories (noted
below) for stories published in calendar year 2011, with each category judged by four active
journalists in the first weeks of 2012. First place carries an award of $500, second place $300
and third place $200; all recipients receive presentation plaques. Certificate of Merit Awards are
made to writers who score within 95 percent of third-place tallies in each category. Winners
must be current members of BWI and members during the year the article was published.
When funded, the 1st to 3rd place winning stories of the previous year are entered into a "Phase
II" competition which culminates in a single selection honored with The Grand Prize Writer's
Award and a cash payment (see details following Annual Contest results).
Additional details are posted at www.bwi.org/news/bwi/best-boating-stories-of-year/ with a clickthrough to the award articles there.

The Grand Prize Writer's Award
Jim Flannery, senior writer for Soundings publications, received the top honor Boating Writers
International presents to a journalist -- The BWI Grand Prize Writer's Award. Co-sponsors of the
2010 Grand award were Martek of Palm Beach and Overing Yacht Designs.
Flannery’s in-depth treatise, "The fading glory of working waterfronts," profiled the human
impact that the demise of water-based commercial enterprise brings and identified the issues
that lead to it. In Maine, and coastal states also tied to a challenged fishery, the competition
between private land use and development and civic interest in keeping businesses and
resulting jobs is a constant faceoff. Flannery also reported on individuals, groups and
government programs seeking healthy mixed-use solutions which offer hope for restoring
waterfront vitality.
Judges said of Flannery’s entry, “We found this exploration of a dying Maine Coast to be
commendable. We applaud its considerable research, its fresh angle, and, most of all, its strong
writing.” (A link to the feature is www.soundingsonline.com/features/in-depth/259502-thefading-glory-of-working-waterfronts.)
Judges for the Grand award are faculty at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications
of Syracuse University. Cited by the judges as honorable mentions were:
- Panbo, the Marine Electronics blog by Ben Ellison;” and
- "Escape from the Island of Doom" by Marlin Bree.
