NMMA Canada is supporting the upcoming World Boating Day

May 12, 2026

NMMA Canada is supporting the upcoming World Boating Day (May 23) through a coordinated effort with Discover Boating Canada and global partners.

The campaign highlights a simple but important goal: getting more people on the water. By showcasing real experiences—across all types of boating—this initiative helps make the industry more visible, accessible, and welcoming to new participants.

Members are encouraged to take part by:

              • sharing on-water experiences and local events

              • highlighting what makes boating meaningful to their customers and communities

              • using the global campaign hashtag #WhatFloatsYourBoat

Content shared will connect into a broader international effort, helping amplify the reach of Canada’s recreational boating sector.

To stay engaged and help amplify the campaign, we encourage members to follow and interact with NMMA Canada and Discover Boating Canada across social channels:

              • X (@nmma_canada, @DB_Canada),

              • LinkedIn: Marie-France Mackinnon or Patrick Pereira
