Boat Shows Are a Leading Indicator of Strength of Overall Boating Industry

New Boat Sales Ride a Rising Tide at D/FW Boat Expo

Dallas , Texas, United States, 06/03/2015 /SubmitPressRelease123/

According to the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), boat shows, such as the DFW Summer Boat Expo, are one of the top sales venues for the boat industry and often serve as a barometer for future sales habits and buying trends. The U.S. recreational boating industry estimated that there will be a 12-13 percent increase in sales of new powerboats from 2013-2015. This is the industry’s third consecutive year of steady growth coming out of the recession.

Thom Dammrich, NMMA president says, “We’re seeing boat dealers and manufacturers increase their space at boat shows around the U.S., signaling their anticipation of a strong boat show buying season. We expect all boat segments to see growth at boat shows—from personal watercraft to small family runabouts to fishing boats and large cruising boats—especially with the variety of exciting new boats being offered and as more people turn to boating in an improving economy.”

All types of new boats, from small fishing boats to luxury yachts, will be unveiled at boat shows across North America and here in North Texas as the summer launches.

“At the 2015 DFW Summer Boat Expo, marine manufacturers will unveil their latest boats, engines and marine accessories,” says Bron Beal, director of the DFW Boat Expo. “Boat dealers will be offering incentives on 2015 models to make room for 2016 models. At this year’s show, buyers can expect a surge of new boats and marine accessories along with a focus on smaller boats that start at lower price points.”

The 2015 DFW Summer Boat Expo, featuring more than 450 boat and watercraft models from over 20 North Texas boat dealers, is offering free admission to women and children after 6 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays both weekends.
