The PWC segment showed the strongest results, up about 15 percent for the last 12 months. The ski/wake boat category also posted double-digit gains, up about 12 percent. The sportfish category was up just under 10 percent.

When it comes to propulsion, outboards were up just under 10 percent and the sterndrive/jet segment was up about 1 percent.
