BREAKING NEWS: Boating Industry Forms National Alliance

The associations representing the recreational boating and light commercial marine industries around Australia have united to form the Boating Industries Alliance to represent their collective interests nationally. The Alliance supersedes the Australian Marine Industry Federation (AMIF) as the peak industry body for the Australian boating industry, with a new charter and funding model that will enable it to deliver improved national outcomes for its members.

According to a statement released today, the purpose of the alliance is to strongly promote and advance the interests of boating industry members on national issues through advocacy to the Federal Government, the development of national policies on issues that affect the boating industry, co-ordination with other federal bodies on matters of federal interest and promotion of the recreational boating industry in Australia. A Key element of this will be the appointment of a national advocate in Canberra whose role will be to ensure that this industry’s agenda is at the forefront of policy and decisions makers.
