NMMA Hosts Meeting for GA State Legislature

In partnership with the Georgia state legislature, National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) hosted a bicameral committee meeting focused on the economic impacts of boating in Georgia with 25 members of the Georgia General Assembly in attendance. The meeting featured speakers from Chaparral and Robalo boats, Yamaha Marine Group, and Anchors Marina.

Recreational boating has a $7.8 billion economic impact in Georgia and supports more than 670 businesses and 27,000 jobs.

The information session was followed by a tour of the Discover Boating Atlanta Boat show, which opened at the Georgia World Congress center yesterday and will run through January 14.

For additional questions or if you are interested in scheduling a facility visit with state legislators or members of Congress, please contact NMMA Director of State Government Affairs, Ben Murray, at bmurray@nmma.org.
