Similar to an e-commerce or online buying experience, Discover Boating’s Boat Finder showcases boats from participating brands exclusively on Discover Boating boat show websites, making it easy to connect attendees directly with exhibitors. Users can browse the inventory of new model year boats and filter by boat type, price, length, NMMA Certified, and more. Here’s an example of a live version of Boat Finder.
Given the program’s success, an evolution for Boat Finder will be announced in the coming weeks, enabling it to reach even more consumers. For questions on how to get your boats listed on Boat Finder, please reach out to [email protected].
