NMMA’s Q3 2020 Marine CEO Sentiment Report, a quarterly survey to assess the state and needs of U.S. recreational boat, engine and marine accessory manufacturing businesses, is now available. The Q3 survey was fielded in October, and data shows marine CEO sentiment was overwhelmingly upbeat with 96% of CEOs reporting stable or expanding business conditions following the increase in new boat sales during the summer and early fall.
Key findings from the Q3 2020 Marine CEO Sentiment Report include:
“Optimism among marine CEOs in Q3 reached the highest levels since the survey’s inception two and a half years ago,” noted Vicky Yu, senior director of business intelligence for NMMA. “With marine manufacturing returning to normal capacity, the increase in boat sales, and upticks in hiring, the outlook among the industry’s leaders remains upbeat, and the expectation is that business conditions will continue to improve into 2021.”
