The newspaper is to publish three tabloid supplements on the London Boat Show, cruises and South Africa and a glossy A4 supplement on Portugal after clinching advertising worth more than 500,000.

The first 24pp tabloid supplement on the London Boat Show was published this morning (6 January) with the paper, and features 12pp of colour.

Some 25,000 copies of the supplement will also be distributed at the event at London's ExCeL exhibition centre in Docklands.

A 16pp tabloid covering major cruise brands, featuring 8pp colour, will be published on 29 January. It will be followed on 12 February by a second 16pp tabloid on South Africa. The content of both 16pp supplements will also be available online. Trafford Park and West Ferry are producing the tabloids.

The 8pp A4 supplement, on the Portuguese islands of San Miguel, Horta and Terceira will also appear on 29 January. It will be printed by Wyndeham with a print run of 1.3m, and will be stitched inside The Telegraph Magazine, which is printed gravure at Gruner+Jahr's DD+V plant in Germany.
