Marine Manufacturers Association:/
There are an estimated 12.1 million registered/documented boats in the
U.S. in 2015. Ninety-five percent of boats on the water (powerboats,
personal watercraft, and sailboats) in the U.S. are small, measuring
less than 26 feet in length and can be trailered to local waterways.
Sailboat sales rebounded in 2016 with 6,500 sailboats sold, an increase
in unit sales of 16.1 percent over 2015 driven by a 23.4 percent
increase in the ‘20 ft. or less’ category. Boating is predominantly
“middle-class” with 72 percent of boat owners having a household income
less than $100,000.
