The Marina Economic Impact Calculator – a simple but powerful tool that lets a marina input gross revenues to calculate its impact on the local economy.

This valuable information can help a marina justify its need for expansion or renovations, and highlight its overall value to its local community. Marina operators can even use the information the tool provides to aid in loan and grant requests. Meanwhile, what AMI gains is better insight into how marinas overall impact the economy across the larger United States (US), because the tool will aggregate the results by region giving the industry a comprehensive picture of just bow economically valuable marinas are to local, regional, and country-wide economies.

AMI estimates that about 11,500 business make up the American marina and boatyard industry. These businesses account for $18.1 Billion in economic activity. AMI members have access to the Marina Economic Impact Calculator, where you can estimate the economic importance of your business to your community.
