NMMA to Co-Host 2023 California Boating Congress, April 11-12

The 2023 California Boating Congress, sponsored by the Marine Recreation Association and co-hosted by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), is scheduled for April 11 and 12, 2023 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in  Sacramento.

NMMA’s Robert Newsome, Senior Vice President, Operations, will present new data detailing the economic impact of the state’s recreational boating and fishing industry, including jobs and businesses supported by the industry.

Alongside the NMMA, this year’s event is being co-host by several other industry groups including California Marine Affairs and Navigation Conference, Boat U.S., Personal Watercraft Industry Association, California Delta Chambers & Visitors Bureau, Recreational Boaters of California, Sacramento Valley Marine Association, California Association of Harbor Masters & Port Captains, California Yacht Brokers Associations, and the Coastal Conservation Association of California.
