CHICAGO – The National Marine Manufacturers Association is about to take a big step forward in the battle to protect and expand water access.
During the 2006 International BoatBuilders’ Exhibition and Conference (IBEX), which kicks off tomorrow at the Miami Convention Center, NMMA will sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the U.S. Forest Service in an effort “to increase boating access on public lands and promote aquatic conservation and stewardship,” it reported in a statement yesterday.
